Care Guide

  • ☀️ Light: Thrives in bright indirect light but adapts well to medium light. Can tolerate some direct sun, though prolonged harsh afternoon sun may scorch leaves. Rotate the plant occasionally for even growth.
  • 💧 Water: Water thoroughly when the top 2–3 inches of soil are dry, then allow to drain fully. Money Trees prefer a good soak followed by a dry-out period — they do not like sitting in soggy soil. Reduce watering in winter.
  • 🌱 Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix. A peat-based mix with added perlite works well. Good drainage is essential.
  • 🌡️ Temperature: Prefers 65–85°F (18–29°C). Keep away from cold drafts, air conditioning vents, and temperatures below 50°F.
  • 💦 Humidity: Appreciates moderate to high humidity. Misting the leaves occasionally, using a pebble tray, or placing near a humidifier will keep it looking its best.
  • 🌿 Fertilizer: Feed monthly during spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength. No feeding needed in fall and winter.
  • ✂️ Pruning: Trim any yellowing or damaged leaves as needed. Light pruning encourages a fuller, bushier canopy.

About the Braided Trunk

The Money Tree’s signature braided trunk is created by weaving together multiple young stems while they’re still flexible. As the plant matures, the braid becomes a permanent, woody feature that gives the tree its distinctive sculptural look. Each plant’s braid is unique — no two are exactly alike.

What to Expect When It Arrives

Your Money Tree will arrive in your chosen size and pot type, carefully packed to protect its braided trunk and canopy during transit. Some leaf drop or minor stress after shipping is completely normal — place it in bright indirect light, water it thoroughly, and give it 1–2 weeks to acclimate. It will bounce back beautifully.

🌱 Pro Tip: Place your Money Tree in the “wealth corner” of your home or office (the far left corner from your front door, according to feng shui) for maximum good fortune vibes — and make sure it gets plenty of bright indirect light to keep that canopy lush and full.

Ships farm-fresh from Rooted Treasures Farms. Every Money Tree is hand-inspected before packing to ensure you receive a healthy, vibrant plant with a strong, well-formed braid — ready to bring good energy to your space.

17 – “For the kingdom of God is not food and drink but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit
Format: Paperback
Everyone should read this book! A very important redirection for Christians today. Though I wanted to address something I disagreed with Wright about, and that is COMMANDMENTS. I want to address the intriguing notion by Wright that the commands given by Paul and others in the NT are more or less guidelines to get them started on the right path of what Wright calls “habits of the heart” (198). Wright also sees the commands in the NT to be concerned with some imminent threat or immoral practice he sees about to happen in the church and puts rules in place (200). He would also say rules are more for the immature or newbies. I am intrigued by it because I have thought that this might be true of what Paul is trying to say as well. Though now I am not so sure. If one reads Psalm 119 one sees that one should seek for God’s salvation and keep his commands. Verse 166 – “I hope for your salvation, O LORD, and I fulfill your commandments” (NRSV). 1 Corinthians 7:19 says that keeping the commandments of God is everything! But key to what is happening with Paul I believe is that 1 Cor. 7:19a says that circumcision is nothing! So obviously Paul is not here referring people back to the OT law. What is true of all believers is that we are “bought with a price”. Psalm 119:166 applies no matter what covenant we are under. It is the apostles who have authority and keys of the kingdom. Wright underplays the authority of the apostles in this instance. The commandments of God are now, apostolic teaching. We can find in many places where obedience is a theme. “Romans begins and ends with the theme of ‘the obedience of faith’…Paul’s message has to do with obedience from the heart (Romans 6:17) to the truth (Rom 2:8, Gal 5:7), the gospel (Rom 10:16, 2 Thess. 1:8), or Christ (2 Cor 10:5,6)” (Rosner 129). Wright does not need to talk about the idea of the commands in the NT being only guidelines, because for Paul if the “obedience under the old covenant was meant to lead to life, obedience under the new is the fruit of new life in Christ” (Ibid 130). All Wright needed to say about the difference between the old and new was what he said earlier on pages 46 and 47. The OT law was “designed to be restrictive”. It is just the opposite for the NT law. It is designed to be freeing. Gal 5:1 – “For freedom Christ has set us free”. Paul says this because some in the church wanted to run back to being slaves under the OT law. In fact Paul uses “obedience” to describe what they were doing right. Gal 5:7 – “You were running well; who prevented you from obeying the truth?” (NRSV). The OT law is summed up by loving God and loving neighbor as well as the new, but the difference comes in the new maturity wrought by Christ. This new teaching has transformed the thinking. The Spirit is on all God’s people. So it is not “guidelines” versus “rules”, it is “liberating rules” vs “restrictive rules”. Romans 14:17 – “For the kingdom of God is not food and drink but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. The one who thus serves Christ is acceptable to God and has human approval. Let us then pursue what makes for peace…”(NRSV). Rosner, Brian S. Paul and the Law, New Studies in Biblical Theology (Downers Grove, IL: Intervarsity Press 2013).

Rethinking Christian Character: Virtue as the Future Character of Priests and Rulers of God's New Creation
Format: Paperback
N.T. Wright is author I have been meaning to read for a long time. I've heard a lot about him especially his book "Jesus and the Victory of God" (which is probably next on my list) and I'm an anglophile at heart so I'll give any british writer/theologian a chance. When this book came on sale for the Kindle I immediately got it and I am very thankful I did. Admittedly the book was much more theological and philosophical than full of "practical advice" but it gave me a lot of meat to chew on that I believe will lead to much practical action. Passion that lasts comes more often from knowing deep down something is true. What we believe determines how we act. Anyway, the book does start off a little slow with Wright's talk about Aristotle's view of virtue and the idea of virtue out in the world. They were some good anecdotes demonstrating how virtue is something developed beforehand that reveals itself in difficult situations, ex. one of the pilot who landed the plane in the Hudson river recently, but I wasn't completely drawn in to the book yet. However, I was sucked in once I hit Chapter 3: Priests and Rulers. The eschatological idea that Christians are going to be priests and rulers in the new creation is something that I often completely lose sight of. It's rarely taught in churches I've been too and it was incredibly intriguing to see Wright lay the biblical foundations for it. As he showed how the theme appeared through out the whole of scripture it was another "ah-ha!" moment for me as the Bible came together once again as coherent connected book that I really can trust. Also I learned a lot from Wright's elaborations on the idea that virtue is really just the character of the new humanity. So when God is calling us to act a certain way it is in light of the future, how things will be in the new creation. This really revolutionized the way I think about my character and is incredibly practical and encouraging. Act this way because that's how things are meant to be and will be! Its not just some random rules that God coming up with; it's the character of the new humanity which was ushered in by Jesus. Wright ends the book with a little more practical chapter, The Virtuous Circle, detailing five practices that help us develop virtue: scripture, stories, examples, community, and sacraments. My only criticism is sometimes the book is a little repetitive. Wright really wants to drive home the point that virtue is something that is a choice but its not just about following certain rules. He again and again shows how it is not legalism or spontaneity that is the solution. We make the choice to renew our minds with the scriptures and do what the scriptures command and slowly our character is changed and virtue comes more naturally. While I certainly will remember this he could have shorted a few passages and still had the same effect. In conclusion, if you are looking for a book that will give you great biblical, theological, and philosophical foundations for what you are supposed to do as Christian on earth this is the book for you.

Absolutely superb and greatly needed
Format: Hardcover
I have read quite a few N.T. Wright books, but this one sounds a cry for something that is most needed in the church today and that is Christian character formation. When virtue is spoken in other places it is most often done so from the wrong angle, but Wright gets it right. The whole idea that after we get "saved", we have done all that is needed, besides inviting a few others to come and join us is tackled by N.T. Wright in this book. Wright explains why Christian character matters and how it relates to God's eschatalogical plan of New Creation. Wright deals with virtue and what exactly it is and how to form Christian virtue. According to Wright, we should practice things like doing right, loving, forgiving, turning the other cheek, etc, until such practice becomes second nature. Wright does not leave out the Holy Spirit in the process, but calls us back to Spiritual disciplines. There is no cheap grace or legalism in this book. Somehow Wright has stuck the right balance between the two poles of liscense and legalism. I recommend this book for all Christians.

BIBLICAL AND THEOLOGICAL NAVIGATION THROUGH PARTISAN POLITICS!
We used N. T. "Tom" Wright's book as the sourcebook for our sermon series and Sunday School lessons during the 2016 national election season in the USA. Due to the unprecedented rancor and division in our country, which always overflows into the life of the church, we needed a solid, biblically-based and theologically-sound source to discuss the body politic, and apply biblical principles to it to help our people navigate these troubled waters. It also needed to be truly non-partisan, not just pay lip-service to non-partisanship then let the true partisan colors shine through, as many authors and books seem to do. Wright's being British and many of his illustration also being so really helped make application without raising defenses or starting arguments. His high view of the authority of scripture and the willingness to be convicted and challenged by the Bible rather than attempt to use the Bible to justify political positions was indeed refreshing. Many purchased the book in our congregation, and I found it be to an excellent source to develop sermons and lessons from. We give this the highest recommendation and comment Dr. Wright on his excellent and needed help in this area of our national life.
