The lucky chestnut or Pachira aquatica gets brown leaves in an unfavorable location or with poor care. This will prevent brown leaves or other discoloration on the leaves of the ornamental plant.
Brown leaves are usually the result of care errors
Wrong location of the money chestnut
A wrong location is often responsible when the lucky chestnut gets brown leaves. In a favorable location, the lucky chestnut is very bright and warm. It doesn't get drafts and isn't constantly being moved.
Lucky chestnut is not cared for properly
Waterlogging in the root area also leads to yellow or brown leaves of the money chestnut. Only water Pachira aquatica when the root ball is almost dry. In winter, reduce the amount of water again.
Never grow fortune chestnuts with braided trunks. This makes the plant very sensitive, so it gets sick more easily or develops brown and yellow leaves.
tips
If the lucky chestnut loses a lot of leaves, this is also a location or care problem. If only a few leaves fall off, that's nothing to worry about.
