    I have a Pachira Money Tree that was left to die. When found it was about 3 feet high. After a month of doctoring a sprout appeared and the old died away. Currently it has since grown to a fairly large plant. Now how is the inter-twing accoplished for which this type of plant is famous for. bj

    That's actually done with three little ones... The braided look's kinda hard to accomplish without having plenty of stock laying around...

    Thanks Had the impression that it was done with one plant. Your input cleared that up, takes more than one to brade. Have to get a couple more.

    Yep, you need to get three small ones, and twist the stems round each other as they grow. It doesn't happen naturally!
