How to propagate the fortune tree

1. Seed propagation

The money tree can be propagated by sowing. Its seeds have strong vitality and can reproduce all the year round. When sowing, just scatter the seeds and cover them with a thin layer of soil, and then keep the soil moist. Its seeds will germinate quickly. After it grows three or four leaves, you can transplant it into a flowerpot. This method of propagating the money tree is especially suitable for people who plant a large number of money trees.

2. Cutting propagation

The money tree can also be propagated by cuttings. The best time for cuttings is between May and August each year. When cuttings, cut healthy stems from the money tree, make them into ten-centimeter cuttings, and insert them directly into potting soil or coarse sand. Then water them enough and place them in a cool and ventilated place. After more than twenty days, the money tree will take root and sprout, and a new money tree will appear.

What to do if the leaves of the fortune tree turn yellow

1. Adjust the lighting

The yellowing of the leaves of the money tree is mostly caused by insufficient light. The best way at this time is to move it to a sunny area with sufficient sunlight. Sufficient sunlight can promote photosynthesis and accelerate the production of chlorophyll, which can improve the yellowing of the leaves of the money tree as soon as possible.

2. Loosen the soil in time

The yellowing of the leaves of the money tree may also be caused by soil compaction and poor air permeability. Therefore, when cultivating the money tree, it is particularly important to loosen the soil in time. The soil should be loosened every three months. This can increase the air permeability and water-repellent properties of the soil, and also promote the growth of the root system. Preventing the yellowing leaves of the money tree can also prevent its leaves from falling off.
