#winter garden

My gorgeous Pachira Aquatica (money tree). She has grown so much since I got her. These are the main care tips:

Medium indirect light

Let her dry the top inch and a half. Then, I’ve been bottom watering her overnight.

Regular humidity

Pet Safe

I’m probably repotting him at some point this year, depending on her roots.

Bird of Paradise From Seed Check ✅!!! THEY ARE GROWING!

This is so exciting, but from personal experience, it is still too soon to scream victory! Seedlings are especially sensitive to anything. Too much of this, too little of that, if you miss to check on them one day, then you might lose them.

I’m manually watering them and placing them outside during the day, for them to get full sun. Then taking them back in to protect them from the cold and outsiders

If you haven’t watched them, I posted about 3 videos of the process back in November if I remember right. It took about 8 weeks for them to sprout. This is week 10.
