Money tree is a very suitable for indoor cultivation ornamental plant . It is afraid of strong light and low temperature environment. If placed outside in winter, it will be frostbite, causing yellowing and drying branches and leaves, and finally only empty pots are left.
Family-raising wealth trees can be moved out for maintenance in summer and moved indoors before winter. Moreover, the ambient temperature should not be too low. If the temperature is lower than 5℃, the plant will have yellow leaves, and there is a risk of frostbite below zero degrees.

Afraid that the pot soil is too moist
During the process of raising wealth trees, the root rot is mostly caused by improper watering. Most of these ornamental plants are made of cuttings and propagation of . There are only a small number of fibrous roots at the roots, which are very afraid of waterlogging. When watering too frequently, the pot soil is wet and undry for a long time, roots will appear.
