Prosperity

The Chinese believe that it is important to have living plants in the home to keep the Ch'i moving and alive. What better way than to also promote prosperity! The Chinese Money Tree is commonly used to draw money into a home or business. Its 5-leaf stems and bamboo-like trunk remind us that the 5 elements come together to look delicate but are actually very strong. This is a hardy plant that grows well here in Canada both indoors and out (but bring it in for the winter). It likes all kinds of lighting making it ideal for any indoor location. Water it well with good drainage and let the soil become dry before watering again. The plant will actually tell you when it is thirsty by being droopy. Oh! It is also non-toxic should your pets eat it... but damage to the plant can indicate damage to your finances. So please be careful.

I think I will have to get one for our store. The photo below is the one next to my work computer at home.
