The money tree can be immediately recognized among other flowers.
The distinctive feature of the plant is its small, round, dense and shiny leaves, which look like coins.
Crassula or fat woman - this is what the money tree is also called, will grow well in an apartment if you choose the right place and lighting for it: the southern or south-eastern part of the apartment and partial shade.
Plant fertilizing
The flower needs not only a pot, watering and light. Fertilizing is also important, especially from April to September.
You can feed the money tree with natural products that can be found in every home.
Crassula will love natural eggshell fertilizer. How to prepare – you ask.
The answer is simple and straightforward: dry the shells and grind them into powder. Add a tablespoon of egg flour to the flower pot.
The fertilizer is used as drainage if it is placed on the bottom at a thickness of 3 cm.
You can make an infusion: pour 500 ml of boiling water over the powder from 5 eggshells. Let it sit for 14 days in a dark place and water with the prepared solution. The plant will certainly delight you with lush flowering.
You can activate the money tree and enhance its effect if you bury several copper coins in the pot when planting it; they can be placed on the bottom.
