The difference between the fortune tree and the lucky tree

1. Appearance

There are many different shapes of money trees. Some people like a straight and upright one, some like it to be wrapped like a braid, and some will style it into their own favorite look. After all, everyone has different tastes. However, this also fully reflects the variability and ornamental nature of the growth of this tree. Its leaves are small and stiff, and each petiole has about a "hair" worth of small leaves, which is also the origin of its name.

The leaves of the money tree are very beautiful, broad and soft. When they hang down, they look like an umbrella, so it is called the umbrella tree. The leaves of this tree are clearly layered, very suitable for viewing, and easy to maintain, so it is widely planted.

2. Origin

The money tree mainly comes from three places, but the most important place is only one, which is Latin America. In China, the area where this tree is most widely planted is Taiwan, and its name was also given by the people here.

The money tree is mainly found in Australia and the Pacific Islands. Since it is very easy to plant, it has already spread across China.

3. Parenting

The planting of money tree is relatively simple, but it has high requirements for fertilizer. After potting, it needs to be fertilized once a week. In addition, organic fertilizer can be added once a month until the peak growth season, then fertilization can be stopped.

The money tree is afraid of both drought and humidity. Either of these may damage the tree and affect its growth and appearance. There is a principle when watering: water only when there is no water, and water thoroughly when you do, and do not let the soil be too dry or too wet.

IV. Others

Apart from this, if you still can't tell them apart, you can only distinguish them from their varieties. These two are completely different plants. The former is called Melon Chestnut, and the latter is called Queensland Umbrella Tree.

Similarly, the two have different Feng Shui effects. The former focuses on "development" while the latter focuses on "recruitment". If you are doing business, the former is naturally more suitable, but if you are investing, I think you should prefer the latter.
