Costa Farms Live Money Tree (Pachira Aquatica), 3-4 Feet Tall, Large Indoor Plant with Braided Trunk, Easy Care Floor Plant in 10-Inch Plant Pot, Pet Friendly Housewarming Gift & Office Decor

Though it was smaller than advertised it arrived green and healthy, price was good if I got what was advertised 3-4’ this one was under 3’ it measured 30” Shape was great, appearance is good! Some leaves fell out but that’s due to acclimation, but it’s disturbing for the novice, Just feel cheated, this is my second one and both of them were smaller than advertised, a little disappointing, at least now I know, I won’t order anymore.

I purchased this plant a little over three months ago. It arrived a day early and as a result sat in 100 degree weather for 9 hours before I could bring it in. This is not the sellers fault but unfortunately as a result of the heat it appeared to be nearly dead. Within a week all the yellowed leaves feel off and by the next week even the green ones were gone. I called Costa Farms who gave me some recommendations on how to bring it back to life. They also have directions on how to request a refund from Amazon. Amazon was terrible to work with on that front and even with the directions from the seller refused to send a replacement. It all turned out okay though because three months later it is alive and thriving! Please do not let all of these negative reviews bring you down. I would suspect if people followed the steps most of them would have similar results. Update 12/15/2025- I've had this plant a little over a year now. It continues to thrive! I have added an update photo of it decorated as our "Christmas Tree"

The money tree arrived today in perfect health. It is beautiful. when you unpack it, it easiest to open the top and bottom of the box while over the sink and raise the box. Gently remove the paper protection and plastic around the bottom. The plant is pet friendly, but it is always best to pet proof the dirt by placing river rocks over the dirt. If you use polished stones check to make certain that don't have minerals that could be harmful to the plant or cat. Water your money tree roughly every 1–2 weeks, but only when the top 2–4 inches of soil are dry.

I bought four beautiful large trees from Costa Farms. My fourth one arrived today August 1 2025. I am icluding this review next to the one July 22nd becausd thd system does not recognize I bought another one and I have no more words to describe its beauty. I will call the Farm and express again the joy I feel from their tender loving arms to mine. I.am so pleased with this tree from the Costa farms. I ordered two before in the winter, they were beautiful but this one that just arrived yesterday it knocked me to the floor. So so beautiful, flowy, new growth soectacular, a tree that is more than alive, magnificent so pretty and so me. So alive, looking good, Ok I am so happy I cannot take my eyes off this beauty. I am excited. I want to call the farms and ask them can they duplicate this doll baby of life in all its own glory. I absolutely love this and no disappointment. I want another one . Thank you MeiWaiTaiNan Burnett. COSTA FARMS you are the best. I will continue to order from you thru Amazon, a company that does not know me but I love them. I received this an hour ago. More spectacular than the third one. Thank you MeiWaiTaiNan Burnett

Pissed it was damaged and really small.

My plant came and when I opened the box was a little nervous. The plant was in great shape. I left it in the pot for about a week before transfering it to a self watering pot. I have had it for over 30 days and it has been thriving so far. It has been a great addition to our living room.

The plant came in with branches broken, leaves fallen

It was a good size and the trunk was nicely braided but the leaves were brown when they arrived. I've since repotted into a bigger pot and new leaves are growing but it still does not look 100% healthy.
