Pachira aquatica - Money Tree
Pachira Aquatica is a very popular tree due to the myths surrounding it, known as the Malabar Chestnut or Money Tree. It is said that the plant brings wealth and prosperity into people's homes.
Pachira Aquatica is native to Central and South America, growing in swampy regions. In the wild, the money tree can grow up to 60 meters tall, has flower buds the size and shape of a banana, and fruits about the size of a coconut.
Note: Pachira aquatica is a fast-growing plant, but its foliage can be sensitive to handling and transport. Any minor cosmetic damage does not affect the plant's health and will quickly be compensated for by the emergence of new leaves under proper care.
