Question
My braided money tree has been dropping leaves. I was watering it on the edges and now water it from the bottom. I've watered it when the top few inches are dry. The leaves that drop have a yellow coloring. How can I prevent further leaf drops? THANKS for your help.

Answer
Regina,

These are tropical plants that are very hardy. Only water once a month or water when the soil is completely dry. Uses sandy soil like cactus soil; keep the soil loose. Mist the tree with water in spray bottle once a week. Too much water can cause leaf yellowing.
