Plot twist: money DOES grow on trees.

Spent my afternoon potting these baby money trees, and yes, West Elm got me with these ridiculously cute pedestal planters. Worth it.

Is it just me or is getting your hands dirty with potting soil weirdly therapeutic?

Money trees are one of my top recommendations for anyone wanting a low-maintenance plant that's completely pet-safe. They tolerate low light, forgive inconsistent watering, and actually thrive on a little neglect. Perfect for real life.

I'm thinking about doing a giveaway for one of these minis. Drop a comment if you want in.
