History
The Money Tree, which is native to Mexico and northern South America, is also very popular in Taiwan and other East Asian countries. In the wild, it can grown up to 60 feet high but can also be managed as an indoor tree or as a bonsai tree. Legend says that a poor Taiwanese farmer found a small Pachira plant and decided to sell the mysterious plants growing in his field to escape poverty. He then became one of the wealthiest people in Taiwan. In the 1980’s, it was first popularized in Taiwan as a houseplant and is prominent to those who practice Feng Shui.
