The Pachira Aquatica Braided Stem, also known as the ‘Money Tree’, ‘Guiana Chestnut’, or ‘Sable Nut’, is a low-maintenance plant perfect for beginners. It requires minimal direct sunlight, as overexposure can scorch its leaves. This tropical tree thrives in moist soil, mimicking its natural swamp and wetland habitat. Native South Americans cultivate these plants for their edible nuts. The most distinctive feature of the Pachira Aquatica is its braided stem, topped with large green leaves.
