How to care for your Chinese Money Plant

It is very important that the pot has drainage holes. This plant normally needs a little water about once a week. The soil should not completely dry out nor get too wet.

Too much water will cause the roots to rot. Your best option is to observe the leaves; when they seem droopy it is time to water your plant.

Do not use tap water when watering your plants. This plant especially hates tap water which contains chemicals. It will harm the plant which will cause white spots and holes on the leaves.

The Chinese Money Plant does not enjoy direct sunlight. Make sure to place it in a bright spot with indirect sunlight.

You need to rotate this plant often as it grows in direction of the light. If you don’t rotate the plant it will grow very lopsided.

This plant seems to thrive in areas that are not too hot.

If you find such a place in the South-East corner of your home, that would be great. In Feng Shui that is the financial area of your home.

If the South-East corner is not an option, no worries. Find another suitable place. Great alternatives are your living room or dining room.

You can also keep your Chinese Money Plant in your bedroom. It is told it will improve harmony in that area.

Naturally many choose to keep it in their home office or at their place of work.

Remember to Share Your Chinese Money Plant

This plant will grow a lot of “babies”. When these “babies get about 2-3 inches tall you can separate them from the mother plant. Cut the baby plant about one inch under the soil.

Replant the baby plant in a new container. Some prefer to let the baby plant stay in a jar of water until it grows lots of new healthy roots.

If you choose to first leave it in water make sure it is not covered in soil. Placing the baby plant with soil covering its few roots will cause the roots to rot.

The mother plant will continue to grow new babies. You now have no excuse for giving away a Chinese Money Plant to all your family and friends. Share the wealth! Good Luck!
