I have 2 shoots on my money tree that have curled leaves . These are the only 2! The rest are all straight normal ! #HappyPlants #TheThread #brunchataudreys #MoneyTree
2ft to light, direct
6” pot with drainage
Last watered 6 days ago
For a split second, I seriously thought you had snakes 🐍 on your hands! πŸ™Œ I was so freaked out, ha ha ha πŸ˜† Oh gosh, I feel kinda bashful admitting that. I’ve got a serious phobia of them! BUT your money tree is so darn cute, and those little curlies are adorable! πŸ₯° I’ve never seen that on a money tree.
@Idplantthat I haven’t either. This is my 1st one and I’ve only had it since May, but it’s gotten big!
Oh my gosh! She’s loving you! πŸ₯° Whatever you are doing, you are doing extremely well! The proof is in the curl! πŸ˜‰β˜ΊοΈ
She's under stress to have those curled leaves. It could be a few things.

She could be root bound. That a pretty small pot.

She looks like she's outdoors on a screened in porch the other cause could be that she's drying too fast in the terra cotta pot.

I need to ask did you remove the rubber band under the soil that holds the braid together. If not then find it and remove it.
Not a great photo- but mine is doing that as well. I’ve been watching it closely and when new shoots come out, they are curled and after I water and a day or 2- they look normal. My other 2 money trees don’t do this. Very weird lol
