Money Tree Pot Size: Gradual Increases Only

Larger Pot = Larger Plant, But Slowly

Yes, money tree (Pachira aquatica) grows larger in bigger pots, but jump sizes cause overwatering.

Correct Repotting

Increase pot diameter by 2 inches/year.
Fertilize every 2 months with water-soluble fertilizer.
Bright indirect light.

Gradual steps prevent root rot.
