Have you repotted the tree yet? They come with rubber bands near the roots that need to be cut off. If not, the tree dies.

Well, supposedly braided money trees do (mine did) yours doesn’t seem to be braided, but I’d check for rubber bands anyway. Hope this helps!

Agree with Jourdan remove the rubber band. It will be at the base of the trunks by the roots. Nurseries use them to hold the trees together during transport. It can be hard to find because they are buried under the dirt and are usually brown. Sometime you have to remove the dirt and wash them off to find them. Once you cut it off your tree will bounce back and be happy again! 💕

They don’t always have rubber bands, just FYI. After reading some comments like this I basically dug up my money tree in hopes of preventing a problems, and no rubber band.
