The braided Pachira Aquatica is a beautiful plant with a braided trunk. Despite her Latin American roots, the Pachira Aquatica is best known in Asia. Her leaves are five-pointed and therefore symbolic in feng shui. She is a real asset as a large houseplant, as she grows fast! In nature, it can even grow up to 25 metres tall! You would then almost say she is a tree rather than a houseplant.
The braided Pachira Aquatica does not like wet feet. It is better to let the soil dry a little before watering again. She also likes light, but like many plants, she doesn't like full sun. In summer, it is better to put her about two metres from the window. Brown leaves are best cut away, and once a month in the spring and summer months, add some nutrition to make her leaves even greener.
