bought this at wal-mart no name no nothing she needs help just dont know what
what is it
It's a Pachira macrocarpa...aka 'Money Tree'.
Will shed leaves without bright light, (no direct sun) can go quite dry between waterings (over-watering tends to kill them!)
A pretty easy plant to care for with proper light and not too much water.
Des, don't panic when the new leaves D-R-O-O-P! Nothing wrong w/it, they just do that! I was paranoid for a bit when I first got mine, then found on another thread that it's normal.

p.s. Easy plant, by the way. Just not too much water, like Nan said. Hasn't brought me any money though....lol
thanks it had a little tag all it said was water twice a week i guess that a bad idea again thank you wish me luck
That isn't a Malibar Chestnut?
Carol....Malibar Chestnut is one of it's 'common names'.
Oooops. Guess I was in a "one trick pony" state of mind!!! thanks Nan!
