Pachira aquatica gevlochten stam
About Me
The Pachira is known as the Watercacao. The plant's stem is beautifully braided and ends in a green leaf crown. The plant can store moisture in its stem, quite clever! This allows the plant to survive short periods without regular watering. If the top of the plant becomes too large, you can trim the bulb slightly.
Easy Care: I am easy to take care of!
