A little plant advice
If leaves start yellowing or dropping, check the soil first —money trees are much more forgiving of slightly dry soil than soggy roots.

The plant came very dry. Some leaves are already crispy. Not happy with my purchase.
The tree is very cute! Shipping took a bit longer than expected, so the tree definitely needed some love when it arrived. Likely something that the seller couldn’t have helped.
Otherwise, everything else was great!
Through no fault of this amazing seller, it took 8 days for my Money Tree to arrive (my first purchase from Alex took 3 days to get here), and miraculously with the exception of a few bent or lost leaves, it appears have made the trip unscathed. It was packaged extremely well so no soil was lost, and unbelievably, it was still moist. Alex was quick to explain what I needed to do to ensure it getting acclimated to its new home after a rough start, and I have no doubt that it will thrive. This is my 2nd plant from this seller in the last month, and I’m about to purchase another after I finish this review. Alex’s high quality plants are packed incredibly well to give them a great chance of arriving happy and healthy, and his fast and thorough customer service goes a long way to make him an A+++++++ seller!

I couldn’t be happier! The plant arrived so fast and was packaged with a lot of care — not a single leaf out of place. It looked exactly like the photo, and the pot was full and lush. I’ve ordered plants online before and they sometimes come looking sparse or sad, but this one was thriving right out of the box. It’s now the centerpiece of my kitchen window.
