Money Tree: An old florist's soil trick - building a "bird's nest" at the bottom of the pot makes it grow to 1 m tall with new shoots sprouting like crazy

The Money Tree is a common foliage plant. Its form is elegant, its leaves are emerald green and glossy, and it can also purify the air. It symbolizes bringing in wealth and treasure, and prosperity and peace, and is loved by many gardening enthusiasts, used to decorate the home and to guard the house.

Plant growth requires fertilizer, and the Money Tree especially loves fertilizer. The old florist says that if you want it to grow very well, shoot up to 1 m tall, and keep pushing out new shoots nonstop, then use this soil trick: build it a "bird's nest" at the bottom of the pot.

Specific method: when repotting or potting up the Money Tree, first lay a layer of pine needles at the bottom of the pot to increase soil air permeability, prevent root rot and add nutrients, then place 3-5 quail eggs on top, spaced evenly. Be careful to gently make a small hole on the upper side of each egg, so that it looks just like a "bird's nest". Continue adding soil until the Money Tree is planted.

After this treatment, the quail eggs will slowly ferment after a month, decomposing and releasing elements such as nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and magnesium, continuously providing nutrients to the Money Tree, making it grow vigorously and push out new shoots nonstop.

Other care for the Money Tree:

1. Caring for the Money Tree has relatively high watering requirements. It likes a moist yet slightly dry environment. During care, the potting soil should be kept appropriately dry. When you see signs of the potting soil turning white, water thoroughly. Frequently spray water mist on the leaves to increase humidity, which better helps new shoots sprout.

However, note one thing: the Money Tree is unusual in having underground tubers, and cannotstay wet for long periods, otherwise it will rot. Keep it in a well-ventilated place for care, ensuring the water can evaporate completely the same day.

2. The tender young leaves newly pushed out by the Money Tree are very easily attacked by pests and diseases, and it is also not easy for them to get through winter, so once the new leaves have grown to a certain extent, spray them 2-3 times with a 0.3% potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution, so they quickly harden and fill out, increasing their resistance.

That is all for the care of the Money Tree. If you have other additions, gardening friends, you can share them with everyone in the comment section below. To learn more about flower-growing knowledge, you can follow Huajianke!
