Hi mayofeb2020,
What is a money tree? I could use one.
As a kid, if I wanted or needed something my mother always said money does not grow on trees, to bad she’s no longer living,I’d love for her to know there are money trees.
Are they large growers?
Sure hope the wild life leaves your daughters vegetable garden alone.

@funcountess. This is the one i have in my planter. It was so sickly I almost threw it away but decided to stick it in the ground, and it like the spot. It's an evergreen plant, I don't fuss over it. Doesn't like too much water which is great because the other plants by it are jade plants. It doesn't get sun at all. Last winter when we have rain and strong wind, it lost all the leaves and I thought that's it. But look at it now! Usually they are indoor plants, the growers would braid the tiny stems before they get hardy. If you Google Money Tree you will find the botanical name. They are expensive online but here in Southern California, you can find them pretty reasonable in Asian markets. One year I even find a tiny bird's nest in my potted money tree. Double luck!!
