Pachira aquatica

My money tree is doing great!! I named him Groot..

I love Groot!

Help me identify this plant- I was gifted it, and it hasn't been doing so well. I really want to learn how to take care of it.

Welcome to gtags! I am learning to id. Tap umbrellaplant and it will call up photos you can look at. Then we both can wait for someone to tell us what it is. @SikoMa , @angiecrazycatlady or any one awake, am I even close?🤗

@lovestogarden can you look at this also?

Welcome to GT! Happy Houseplant Appreciation Day, too! Your plant does look like the Umbrella Plant. I don't know much about them Michelle, sorry. Hopefully someone will help: #houseplant #advice @purplebird

Well Mary Kate we have a confirmation. Schefflera or common names umbrella plant or octopus plant. Now you can look it up in the site encyclopedia, name your photo and the encyclopedia will send plant care information to your task folder through out the year.🤗 You can still do this just use the correct ID farther down in comments. Sorry, like I said I am trying to learn.

Remember if you want to get a comment to someone specific, put the @ sign in front of their user name so they get a notification of the comment.

It's different to my umbrella plant but from the same family I would guess there are all different types. @purplebird your good at this GT I've just learnt loads by reading your comments above 😊
