Grow your money tree this way, and it won't get root rot or curled edges, staying lush green all year round
What causes the new leaves of a money tree to curl at the edges?
If the new leaves of a money tree are very small and their edges are curled, this is normal. After growing for a period of time, just a few days, it will recover.

But if the leaves have grown to a certain size and have already unfurled yet are still curled, in this case we first need to check whether there are insects on the front and back of the leaves. Aphids and the like will cause the leaves to curl. If insects are found, spray pesticide promptly. After the insects are thoroughly killed, the newly grown leaves will recover.

Another case of curled leaves is a lack of fertilizer or a problem with the root system. The money tree has a thick main trunk, and the trunk can store nutrients. We generally grow it in a small pot, and the nutrients in a small pot are insufficient. After the nutrients in the trunk are mostly used up, if there are no nutrients in the potting soil and we don't replenish them in time, this causes a nutrient deficiency, and the leaves it grows will turn yellow and curl. If this is the case and you haven't fertilized for a long time, quickly give it some fertilizer to help it recover.

If your money tree is fertilized normally and watered normally, and the light is also fine, yet it still has curling leaves, then its root system has a problem. You can remove all the potting soil; its roots must have rotted, and there are basically no new roots left. If this is the case, quickly soak the roots in a solution of mancozeb mixed with water at 1:800, soak for two hours, and change to new soil. After planting, the roots will begin to grow and gradually recover, and its leaves will no longer have this problem.
