The Pachira Aquatica originates from South America, where it's grown in the field. When planted in nature, the Pachira can grow into a twenty meters high tree. Not so manageable for a living room, right? Luckily it doesn't grow as enormous when the plant is growing inside your living room.

The Pachira Aquatica is also known as the Malabar chestnut and the Money Tree. In Asia, this plant is believed to be a symbol of a successful business.
