Money tree watering methods you must remember for lush new leaves and no more yellow leaves or root rot

As the saying goes, the way you care for flowers reflects a person's character, so how to care for flowers well has become a worry for many people. Below, the editor will introduce some knowledge and tips about growing flowers. Without further ado, let's take a look!

Today let's discuss a much-talked-about topic, which is watering the money tree (Pachira aquatica). Although everyone knows the money tree stores a large amount of water in its stems and roots, and its root system is not well developed, what it fears most is waterlogging and root rot.

We all know we cannot water it too much, but some flower lovers still find it hard to judge. Exactly when and what symptoms tell us it is time to water? Today I will share this with everyone.

Whether it is a money tree or other plants, when symptoms of water shortage appear, the first sign shown on the leaves is slight wilting. At this point, if we replenish water in time, it will quickly return to normal.

If we let it stay dry, yellowing and dropping of leaves will follow. If wilting occurs, we need to give it water. We can also pick up the potting soil and take a look.

Normally, we should keep it slightly moist; the potting soil should hold together when squeezed into a ball. If it crumbles when squeezed, it is fairly dry, so at this point we need to water it. Do you all know now?
