📌 Note

Pachira aquatica has relatively delicate foliage, and following handling, transport and adjustment to new environmental conditions, some leaves may show bends, small tears, spots, dry edges or other cosmetic imperfections.

Some leaves may also turn yellow or temporarily fall after delivery as a reaction to changes in light, temperature or humidity.

These effects are generally temporary and do not affect the plant's development. With proper care, Pachira aquatica will produce new leaves and gradually restore its appearance.
