Light:
Place your Chinese Money Plant in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate some direct sunlight, especially during morning hours, but avoid prolonged exposure to intense sunlight as it can scorch the leaves. Rotate the plant occasionally to ensure even growth.
Watering:
Water your Chinese Money Plant when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Ensure that the pot has drainage holes to prevent waterlogging, as overly wet soil can lead to root rot. Avoid letting the plant sit in water for extended periods. Reduce watering during the winter months when growth slows down.
Soil:
Use a well-draining potting mix for your Chinese Money Plant. A mixture of peat moss, perlite, and compost works well to provide good drainage and aeration for the roots.
Temperature:
Maintain temperatures between 60°F to 75°F (15°C to 24°C) for your Chinese Money Plant. It can tolerate slightly cooler temperatures, but avoid exposing it to cold drafts or temperatures below 50°F (10°C).
Humidity:
Chinese Money Plant prefers average indoor humidity levels. It can tolerate lower humidity but benefits from occasional misting, especially in dry environments or during winter when indoor air tends to be drier.
