The money tree likes it warm in summer
Which temperature is ideal for the money tree?
The money tree comes from Africa and therefore likes to warm it. However, this only affects the growth phase. In winter, you need to maintain a money tree in cooler temperatures. What is the ideal temperature for money trees?
The right temperature for the money tree in summer
In summer, the money tree needs temperatures between 20 and 27 degrees. A place in the flower window is ideal. But even indoors, the houseplant feels comfortable.
Lower temperature in winter
Penny trees are not hardy and can not tolerate temperatures below five degrees. Still, you need to keep the money tree cooler in the winter, at least if you hope for a rich flowering.
Winter temperatures should not fall more than five degrees or rise above 12 degrees. If necessary, the money tree tolerates even temperatures up to 16 degrees.
Tips
Just as important as the right temperatures is the incidence of light at the site. Pfennig trees need a lot of light even in winter. If necessary, you can use plant lamps.
