No need to buy a money tree - just snap off a branch and stick it in soil and it will live, sending out big white roots in 10 days

River sand propagation method

1. Use a sterilized sharp knife to cut a small section of healthy branch from the money tree. The length should be about 10-15 cm.

2. Remove the excess leaves from the branch, keeping only the tender leaves in the core and two old leaves.

3. Prepare clean river sand in advance, soak it in carbendazim solution for 1-2 hours, then rinse it clean with water and put it into a plastic bottle or glass bottle.

4. Apply rooting hormone to the cut end of the branch, insert it about 5 cm into the river sand, water it thoroughly, then place it in a cool, ventilated spot.

5. Generally, after about 25 days the branch will grow new roots.

6. After rooting, you can transplant the branch into a pre-prepared flower pot. Place the potted money tree in a cool, ventilated spot for 7-10 days of care, then care for it normally.

Water propagation method

1. Use a sterilized knife to cut a healthy money tree branch, making sure the cut is smooth, with a length of about 10-15 cm.

2. Keep 2-3 leaves and remove and discard the rest.

3. Prepare a plastic bottle or cup, pour in half a cup of water, apply rooting hormone to the cut end of the branch (you can skip it if you don't have any), and insert it into the water.

4. Place the plastic bottle or cup in a ventilated, cool spot. After about 7-10 days the cut end will grow roots.

5. After rooting, take the branch out and plant it in nutrient soil. Place the newly potted money tree in a ventilated, cool spot. After about 7-10 days it will grow new leaves, and after that you can care for it normally.

Insulated, moisture-retaining bucket propagation

1. Use a sterilized sharp knife to cut a section of healthy money tree branch, about 10-15 cm long.

2. Prepare a plastic bucket and put perlite and leaf mold into it, with a perlite to leaf mold ratio of 1:2.

3. Insert the branch into the bucket, water it thoroughly, and wrap the whole bucket tightly with plastic film.

4. Keep the temperature at around 25°C. After about 3 weeks the money tree branch will root.

5. Transplant the rooted money tree into a pre-prepared flower pot. Place the pot in a cool, ventilated spot. After 7-10 days you can move it to a spot with bright, indirect light for normal care.
