Feng-Shui - Indoor Tree Tranquility
In decorating your home, putting a few live plants in the home is going to increase the air quality while filling in those empty spaces at the same time. You can decorate your home easily with a plant called the braided money tree. The braided money tree is also known by the name of Pachira Aquatica.
The braided money tree is a plant that is going to have a trunk, as a tree does, and it is braided as it grows to create that simple elegant look. The tree winds around itself and can be kept in areas where there is a small space or large. The indoor tree grows to be a few feet tall, and doesn't require too much care at all. Another version of the braided money tree is the bonsai which can be up to seven feet tall when it is mature, but that can take years and years.
Caring for a Bonsai
The bonsai is one tree that will love water, but will also require a soil that is well draining. Watering the tree weekly is going to be something you will have to remember. The pot is also essential for the bonsai, because it will grow over the years; you want something it can grow into, and not really out of all at the same time. The soil should be rock free, with materials in the soil such as the small white perlite you see in potting soil, to keep the soil loose and well draining.
The same will be true for your braided money tree, you need a soil that is loose and well draining but one that you can water weekly, but even watering every ten days or so is going to be plenty for the braided indoor tree. Perlite and peat mixtures along with a little vermiculite is going to be an ideal mixture that will keep the soil look and will allow air to the roots of the tree at the same time. The roots of the tree will be much happier as they can grow and reach out through the soil with little problem.
Watering of any house plant or house tree is going to be something that you will have to think about occasionally. Putting it on your calendar takes just a second and then everyone in the house will know not to water the indoor braided ficus plant too much even when you are not home for any length of time. If small children are in the home, the tree could be misted on the leaves and the children will learn the art of caring for the household tree at the same time without overwatering your plants.
When it comes to sunlight, the braided tree and the bonsai both are going to do fine in the indirect sunlight. What this means is you don't want to put the tree right in front of the window but perhaps in the corner across the room where the window provides light. This is called indirect light and will be sufficient for your tree to thrive.
