Care Guide

Light: Thrives in indirect to moderate sunlight. It can tolerate low light conditions but grows best with bright, indirect light.

Temperature: Prefers temperatures between 65-75°F (18-24°C). It can tolerate slightly cooler temperatures but should be protected from frost.

Watering: Allow the top inch of soil to dry out before watering. It's better to underwater than overwater, as it is susceptible to root rot.

Soil: Well-draining potting mix is ideal. A standard indoor potting mix works well.

Humidity: Adapts well to average household humidity levels. Misting can be beneficial in drier environments.

Fertilization: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer once a month during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce feeding in the fall and winter.

Repotting: Repot when the plant becomes root-bound or outgrows its container, typically every 2-3 years.

Pruning: Trim back any excessively long stems to encourage bushier growth. Remove any yellow or damaged leaves regularly.

Support: In a hanging basket, the trailing stems may not need additional support. Ensure the basket is secure and hung from a sturdy hook or bracket.

Propagation: Money Plants can be easily propagated through stem cuttings. These can be rooted in water or directly in soil.

Pest Management: Keep an eye out for common houseplant pests like spider mites or aphids. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil.

Ensure the hanging basket has good drainage holes and is hung securely from a suitable hook or bracket. With proper care, the Money Plant (Green) in a hanging basket will bring a touch of natural beauty and positive energy to your indoor space.
