- Money Tree is a common houseplant. It likes tropical climate, a lot of indirect sunlight and humidity. It is symbolically associated with good financial fortune and is commonly seen in businesses, sometimes with red ribbons or other auspicious ornamentation attached.
This video shows how to propagate them from their cuttings.

Thanks so much for having the patience to film the growth overtime. Many videos I've seen only show a snapshot of propogation. Also good to see the success and failures. Let's us see that not all cutting with be successful.
Finally, someone is showing closeup and clear explanation. Thank You!
Thank you for putting all your updates in one video... it is so pleasurable to watch everything together and know how your plant grew... its so off putting when other channels don't put updates in same video and you have to search endlessly.
Thanks again for your amazing video recordings... listing all experiment results and showing updates...l have subscribed
Thank you
I never had flowers or plants or trees before .. then this moneytree in the store just called for me 😅
I brought it home and I find myself completely attached to her . (Or should I say them because it multiple braided together) my mother told me they were hard to keep alive and not to get to attached to it ... I have somehow just instinctively care for them .. rotate her for equal indirect sun exposure .. give her water only on Tuesday . I change them into a bigger pot , wash her leaves and mist her every day . She has grown so much and a lotttt of new branch and nods appeared in only 2 weeks .. so one day I decide to watch a video on how to grow a new moneytree. As I watch the video I look at Sarah (the money tree) and tell her .. ohh no I could never do this to you 😲
So I think im gonna stick to rescue them from the store instead 😅
Sure
❤❤ Yes! Rescue all the store plants!❤❤
Very informative and easy to follow video. Thank you. Keep planting! 🌱
Thank you for all the education you taught me on how to propagate my money tree and the different ways to grow them whether done in water or in soil. I've always been afraid to cut my money tree. it is quite tall right now about 6 feet tall but very leggy but i want it more bushier. but now i am not scared to cut it and get more plants from it. thank you again!!
thank u for the real updates and being honest! a lot of people will sugar coat things and say oh it'll just grow and be happy but its def not always true
Thank you so much for this info. Now I know how todo cutting. God bless, keep on making videos like this.👍👍👍😄
Thank you for this fantastic tutorial! I was looking to propagate my money tree and your tutorial was the first thing that popped up on CZcams.
I will be propagating today🙌
I am glad it was helpful
This tree is really strong, the young branches still sprouting
great video
Thank you so much for the video Ma'am!!!
loved this video, so informative! thank you so much
I love your channel. Thank you for your guidance. 💚🌿
Love the sound of the birds. Thank you for this! very helpful
Awesome
Thank for teaching how to make more plants!!I love moneytrees!!
Yes they are pretty
Thank you for your all info. Love Elvia
I have money tree also it had 2kinds of flowers red and yellow. Thanks for sharing your video.
I love this. Thankyou for sharing
Thank you so much - truly appreciate all of the info you included
You are so welcome!
Thank you for this channel! I have a lot to learn!
Awesome
amazing video. very simply put
Cool video. Got me to try it myself 👌
Very nice and congrats for your newly grown plant...
Thank you for sharing your wisdom. I recently pruned mine and I'm experiencing the same as you - the fast growth of new leaflets. I tried rooting a few leaflets in water about a year ago but no success.
I usually just root mine in a glass of water on the window ledge! Takes a few weeks, just keep changing the water once/week until you get roots then plant in the pot. Obviously this way works too but I enjoy watching the roots grow!
@Jillian Maloney I’m not sure if it’s quicker but at least you can see it’s working!!
no idea if you're still active but i'm super new to this! would a smaller branch with 2/3 nodes work with this method? and, is the rooting powder she used necessary?
@@limnpeach9640 it should work. Just make sure your cutting where the stem is still green and try to cut on an angle to increase surface area. I’ve never used rooting horomone and it’s always worked but if you have some I’m sure it would help!
Thank you!
Very well explained! Thank you
You are welcome!
Omg that tree was so beautiful. I wouldve been sad to cut it! I cant wait to see an update later. 😻
They grow back really fast, its an amazing plant.
I own one. Beautiful leaves.
I love your videos about how to grow and propagate the money tree. I'm researching about growing this tree indoors myself, as it is a good indoor plant to clean (re-oxygenate) the air in my room, and it is non-toxic to cats (so many plants are poisonous to cats, and the money tree (pachira aquatica) is not only beautiful, it's non-toxic to our feline friends!). I especially found your advice on direct and indirect lighting for this plant very useful, and will be more mindful about where I place my plant from now on.
I did read and watch on other sites, that eventhough the money tree requires humidity, the soil needs to be allowed to dry out completely in between waterings. I'm unsure if procedure is different for propagation and new growth, so I'm a bit confused on the strategy to tie it with plastic bags to retain the moisture. Maybe you have a drier climate than I do. I live along the equator and have enough humidity all year round. Some have suggested to put a layer of pebbles over the soil, to help create a more humid environment, in between waterings. As this is not required for my climate, I didn't research more into that, but perhaps it would help you.
These plants like a moderately humid room and deep but infrequent watering (so allowing 1-2 weeks in between waterings would be recommended). It is recommended to water the plants until the water runs from the drainage holes and then let them dry out between subsequent watering sessions.
The top 2-4 inches of soil should be dry as a good indication of when the next watering should be. I also watched another video on how to test the soil to know when would be a good time to re-water the plant. I think if plants get too much or too little water than they prefer, they get moisture stress, and their leaves might start turning yellow - and they might die :(
I'm still learning more about planting this plant successfully, but I hope this helps you as much as you have helped me. Thank you for your honest videos. I love them!
If you cover it with a plastic bag, leave it loose otherwise fungus may develop. Thanks for your detailed note.
I have a plant patchira aquatica but already bearing fruit in front of our house. Great plant..
i have too but still waiting to bear fruit. How many years it will bear fruit using seeds in planting? i used seed in planting...
awesome! I am gonna try this (I live in Netherlands) keep you posted! planted 2 and now we wait
Awesome, all the best
Thank you!! I accidentally broke a stem off my money tree. You gave me the info I needed. Great resource video!

Same thing happened to me. My mom fell onto the branch that was grow 6 leaves and it snapped. Im trying to save it, buried the nodes of it and its still just withering away. Im so sad

Great explanations. Thank you.
Thank you
Thank you
Thank you for this video, my cat snapped off a massive branch and I was so upset. Its my favourite plant. Now it seems like a good thing as I can hopefully make a successful cutting with your guidance!
Awesome
Thanks for your information 👍 for 💰 🌲 Jade
Thank you for this video. Greetings from Poland!
Welcome to gardening
Thanks for sharing my dear , now I know how to propagate my money tree.
Great
Thank you so much for this informative video .. I have 4 big plants , so now I know how I can have more now
Also , I wanted to know more of care for this plant as live in the cold country, Vancouver Canada .
Just keep them inside near a bright window
Easy method therefore right for my plant knowledge 💕
Haha
So I'm experimented with the branches I cut I put them in water for the past 4 months, and it did grow roots then I put them in soil... I got a happy money plant.
Awesome
thank you
You're welcome
I’ve had the hardest time with my money tree. I’ve lost now 3 branches out of 5. I noticed one branch was mushy at the bottom, and realized I had root rot. I had went by the directions on the plant, but chain places, not to mention names, I feel set you up for failure. When I realized it. I did everything I could to save the branches that had good roots. I got the right dirt, cleaned everything...all of that. I was not over watering, but now 8 week later, I’m down to two. The crazy thing is, that it has still had nice green health leaves that are growing. The two that are left look good, but I’m not very optimistic. I guess I’m learning at least.
i’m having the same problem with my money tree. i’ve tried everything but it just wont flourish. it’s holding on with everything it’s got, but can’t seem to grow at all. it just stays the same, kinda pathetic looking but not quite dead.
I had the same problem with mine early on. I followed the directions to water when the top inch or two of the soil was dry. After seeking advice on a plant Facebook group, someone suggested only watering when the soil is basically COMPLETELY dried out.
That seemed crazy to me, but it made all the difference in the world! I water it maybe once every 3-4 weeks until water comes out of the bottom drainage holes. My money tree has now almost tripled in size in just a few months.
Experiencing the same with my little money tree plant. Following the instructions that came.with the plant led to root rot. R.I.P Cash 🥺
Thank you for sharing
You are welcome
Good👍❤️
This is so helpful! I bought a poor little money tree that was on sale because it wasn’t looking too good, and of course, as we do, we try to revive the poor thing. Little did I know it was in worse condition than I thought, the whole base was squishy and most of the plant was rotting but luckily there were some stems that were still alive. I’ve cut them and now I’m propagating them in water with a splash of fertilizer and hydrogen peroxide. Wish me luck 🙏🏻
Also any tips to help with propagation during the winter?
Great! You could also plant some stems in soil. I am going to do the same with my money tree as it dropped a lot of leaves when I was away for 4 weeks
Good
Very nice process..so is better to plant in the spring it will grow better...
Yes absolutely
How long did it take to go from planting the cuttings to starting growing leaves? How long does it take to grow roots usually? Please help!
It varies with the climate, warm humid weather helps in faster growth. For me I think it took about 2 months to start seeing the growth
What soil do you recommend? Coco peat? Sorry if I’m being dim, please clarify? Thank you, & thank you for your very informative interesting & end to end video, really appreciated 👏🏻👍🏼
Mostly Coco peat, some perlite and some compost
Which number for rooting hormone? 1, 2 or 3? Thx.
Thank you for explaining this process. Can you tell me if the stems of the cuttings will thicken into trunks?
They will but after many years
I followed your direction from previous video and the little branch with one node survived and grew roots while in the water. I am worried that when i plant into soil it won't make it. so i have been adding soil to the water little by little. God willing it makes it through. How would It get that beautiful breaded trunk later on?
That will require a few plants for braiding
Hi Bacova, could you give us an update? I too am scared things will go wrong when moving the roofer cutting from the water into soil
Question! I am attempting to propagate my money tree from a smaller cutting (2-3 inches long stem), just enough to fit in a triple shot glass. How often should I replace the water? Daily? Every other day?
Replace everyday if you can
Thanks for this video. I have a plant id like to show you and would love advice. It is a very happy and healthy plant with 6/7 leaves on it. It is a braided one.
I want more branches to actually come from the branches myself.
Hi thank you for the video. Im having it at right outside at gate. But im afraid of the root, will it break the car porch tiles ?
Is it becoming really big?
Great video. What id you see the cntral braid started to harden and become brown? Can I rebraid the propgated stems?
Not sure what is your question
I have a Money tree that has been sitting in my office for about 10 years in the same small container. It's survived the test of time, but won't grow any further. If I move it to a bigger pot, does it still have a chance to grow larger or is it probably stunted after 10 years in it's tiny pot?
Yes, it will grow better in a bigger planter
Thanks for a great video! Do you make the braid yourself while the plant is growing or the braid grows naturally?
You need to make it, it doesn't grow naturally
Great video! What's is that stuff you used to dip the stem into, to keep fungus away?? Is that something you have to buy or can I make it at home??
It's rooting hormone. Some people use cinnamon powder instead but I use rooting hormone. It's readily available in the market. Online or nurseries
Hare Krishna. So amazing planting ❤❤🎉🎉🎉❤❤ connect stay.
Thanks
Thank you! This video helps what I was looking for. I have a really tall money tree, but is one branch. It’s to tall and I’m afraid to cut it. Any sugerencias that can help me please??
I showed how to cut. Follow the tips
Thanks for this video. Please can you tell me the name of the soil to use? Xx
Regular potting soil mix with added coco peat
Hello, What should I do if my Money Tree looks weak? The leaves aren’t growing full like they used to. The tree looks skinny. I pruned it more than 6 months ago.
Few things you can do. Fertilize it with any general purpose fertilizer in spring. Move it to an area where it gets brighter indirect light. In spring, check if it's root bound and if yes, transplant it.
I've been trying to save my money tree .I had to cut the healthy upper part off. I placed it in water. My plant had 3 braids, 2 were rotted. The original I re potted.Im praying both parts will regrow, now they are in direct sunlight. Please make new videos of your plants.Thanks.
Sure
I have questions on leaflet. When it roots in water... I want to plant in soil.
Sure that's what you are supposed to do
I rescued one that a co worker was throwing out. The leaves are turning yellowing and some have fallen off. I replanted it today into a bigger pot with fresh soil and removed the woody parts. At first I had the plant in front of a window for about two weeks but now have moved it. Any suggestions?
Water only when the soil is dry and keep in bright indirect sunlight
Will do, thanks a lot ☺️
hello - my tree has dropped a lot of leaves along the stem and the growth is now only at the top. can i cut along the stem where leaves were / the nodes were left, or does there need to be growth where i cut? thank you in advance.
As long as it's not totally Woody where you cut, it's going to be fine
Thanks for the information, asI am in Canada what is the best time ( month) to propagate? Thank u.
I have a new money tree, I received about 2 months ago. And its growing like crazy. I mist mine and I notice when I mist the trunk , the trunk started to sprout! No mist the sprouts won't grow, mist for 2 days and bam 2 inches in days!
Wow! Lucky you!
❤️👍
Eu tenho 2 pé a 15 anos ja destribui muitas mudas as castanhas sao maravilhosa sem contar que faz o tamanhos queres formando bonsais. Pega de galhos ou sementes...❤
I didn't know they get seeds
Thanks for this video, very informative. What do you put again to avoid fungus on cuttings? Many thanks once again.
Rooting hormone
does aloe vera leaf works as a rooting hormone?
@@pilyosopoatbp9275 never heard of that
What's rooting hormone?
@@jwise6405 it helps in developing roots. It's available in most nurseries.
May i know what is the name of the powder you used in the cuttings before putting it in the pot?
Thank you.
May I asked the same questions? Thank you very much for this really interesting video.
Rooting hormone powder
Is it not possible to plant the cuttings directly to the soil without dipping in rooting hormone? Will it not grow ?
It may, rooting hormone just makes it easier
what soil did you use? do you fertilize it?
I used general purpose soil. Don't need to fertilize it while it is still young.
What is that rooting hormon that you applied in your plant ma'am?
It's a powder you can get from a nursery or amazon
how true that's fruits is OK to eating madammm
I mean the seed of the fruit of this money tree
I have no idea
Is it okay to cut and propagate from a brown branch? Our money tree has matured and is big. Or I should only get from a new green branch?
I have only tried green stems
@@EasyPeasyGardening Oh. Okay. So I tried cutting from a more mature stem yesterday so I'll update you if anything happens ☺
Do you water everyday while the planted stems are not rooted yet?
No. That will be too much. Since I loosely cover it with a plastic bag, and keep it inside, it does not lose that much water. I mist it probably once in 4 to 5 days
What kind of soil are you using?
Mostly Coco peat with some compost and some perlite
What is the powder that she uses before inserting in the soil???
Rooting hormone
I saw a previous videos of yours where you propagated in water, can I use either water or soil for any size cutting or are smaller cutting & leaves better in water where as a larger cutting will do better in soil. Thanks.
You can use either in either medium. Don't try leaves though, they develop roots but they don't grow into plants
@@EasyPeasyGardening thank you!
@@matthewturnbull9547 you are welcome
Hi I've cut mine because it was getting really big but the nodes I've placed underneath the soil was old nodes were the leaves had broken of ages ago will it root from them please
Yes
@@EasyPeasyGardening thanks
Can I do that without the rooting hormone?
You can but success rate may be lower.. some people use turmeric powder or honey instead.
What is best soil and fertilizer for indoor plants
General potting mix is good, works for most plants. General purpose fertilizer with equal npk works.
My money tree has also new growth on the bottom like yours.. Do you think it's wise for me to cut those new growth so it doesn't take the energy away from the mother tree?
Also, Are those new growth able to be propagated Or are they too young?
If you want your plant bushy at the bottom, leave them alone otherwise prune them. If the new branches are too soft meaning easily bendable, they may not propagate
@@EasyPeasyGardening thank you so much for your advice and responding!
I found this plant at a dumpster. It is obviously sick, it has root and stem rot. This particular plant is actually 3 or 4 individual plants that are flated. One of the "flated" or plant is actually alive and fighting for survival, it has small tiny offshoots at the base and the top. The other ones look dead, grayish and soft in texture. I decided to take it home to give it a chance of survival. Any tips what I should do?
If the whole root is dead, could I try to propagate it by the stem? Can roots grow directly from stem or only green small branches?
@@Zhiivago you should definitely try to plant it and see if it survives. If the plant doesn't have healthy roots, try to plant the stems
What soil you used? Perlite?
Coco peat and perlite mixed in 4 to 1 Ratio I think
Hello at what point can I remove it from the bathroom / opaque window to my living room where it can get more light and less humidity
When you see some growth
@@EasyPeasyGardening oh ok because only one of the three stems have shown the flower growth so should I wait for the other two stems to show the flowering
@@miker4099 yeah wait for a little while
@@EasyPeasyGardening thanks for the help
What’s the name of the rooting stuff you put at the end of the cutting?
Rooting hormone available in nurseries
Easy Peasy Gardening thank you, I rescued a money tree from a friend but the leaves were yellowing and browning so today I cut the branches that looked weak and threw out the the pieces that were woody and dead looking. That left me with two pieces so I re potted them
Is the rooting hormone super necessary? I’m looking to clone for my first time and don’t have any on-hand.
Hello Easy Peasy Gardening, how often do you water the money tree in soil?
Only when the soil feels dry. It all depends on your climate.
@@EasyPeasyGardening Thanks for replying I got one and couldn't keep long the leaves were fallen, it had some stones on the surface.
@@gloriastellaarita5175 a young money tree is a little difficult to maintain. Once it's big, it is pretty much maintenance free
Will it grow into a braid like the original tree?
You have to braid it using multiple plants
Hello mam, which is the right time to propagate it
Spring time is the growth time so that's best for propagation
🌟
where do you get the rooting hormones?
You can get it from a nursery or amazon
Thanks for this wonderful video. Can the cuttings be rooted in water
Yes, but soil is better
@@EasyPeasyGardening Thank you! 😊
@@donnastovall8340 you are welcome
O solüsyon nedir? Çiçeği neyin içine batırdı dikmeden önce?
Hi there, my plant only contains one branch (the other 2 stems died unfortunately) and all the nodes are clumped at the end of the one and only branch. Is there still any way of propagating?
Wait till they become taller
