Money Tree - June 14th, 2006 at 10:35 AM
My daughter, Sarah, gave me a Money Tree for Mother's day; it was purchased at Wal-Mart. I am rather stumped as to why Wal-Mart placed this beautiful plant in a pot full of pebbles with no way to test the soil for moisture or lack thereof. Also, there is no outlet hole in the pot for water to go. The attached care "coupon" advises to "allow 'soil' to dry between waterings." Since they put the plant in pebbles (there is NO dirt in the pot whatsoever; just pebbles which are glued on VERY WELL and must be literally pried off the pot), how can I care for this plant? Can someone please tell me: Should I remove this plant from its pebble bed and transplant into a dirt container, OR can I care for it in its existent state?
Thanks!
Thanks!
