🌿 Pachira aquatica ‘Twisted’ (Money Tree) Care Tips

Pachira aquatica ‘Twisted’, often referred to as a Twisted Money Tree, is a visually striking version of the classic money tree, featuring a braided or twisted trunk and glossy, palmate green leaves. It’s believed to bring prosperity and good fortune, making it a popular gift and indoor plant. Low-maintenance and tolerant of a range of conditions, it’s ideal for homes, offices, or feng shui arrangements.

☀️ Light

• Prefers bright, indirect light.

• Tolerates medium light, but growth may slow.

• Avoid direct afternoon sun, which can scorch leaves.

💧 Watering

• Water when the top 3–5 cm (1–2 inches) of soil feels dry.

• Water deeply, then allow excess to drain.

• Reduce watering in cooler months—overwatering is the most common issue.

🌱 Soil

• Requires well-draining soil.

• Use a mix of potting soil + perlite or coarse sand.

• Ensure pot has good drainage to prevent root rot.

💦 Humidity

• Enjoys moderate to high humidity.

• Mist occasionally or use a humidity tray in dry indoor environments.

• Leaf edges may brown in very dry air.

🌡️ Temperature

• Thrives in 18–26°C (65–80°F).

• Protect from cold drafts and avoid temperatures below 10°C (50°F).

🍃 Fertilizer

• Feed monthly in spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertilizer.

• No need to fertilize during fall and winter when growth slows.

✂️ Pruning & Maintenance

• Prune to maintain shape or encourage bushier growth.

• Remove any yellowing or damaged leaves.

• Clean leaves occasionally to keep them glossy and dust-free.

🪴 Repotting

• Repot every 2–3 years or when roots outgrow the pot.

• Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage.

🌱 Styling Tip:

Use as a focal plant in minimalist pots or as a gift for new beginnings and prosperity. The twisted trunk adds height and visual interest without taking up much space.
