The money tree (Pachira aquatica) is an easy-care plant that grows quickly—up to 24 inches a year. It will eventually reach 6 to 8 feet tall in maturity. This hardy plant likes bright to medium indirect sunlight for six hours per day and should be watered when the top inch of soil dries.
With proper care, this long-living plant can live for up to a decade. This plant is prominent among those who practice feng shui and is believed to create positive "chi" or energy.
