Most fat women are perennials, but annual species are also found. Immediately after flowering, they die. To see the money tree in bloom, you need to work hard and be patient. Delicate white flowers will appear only when the plant is kept in the right conditions.
Types of Money Tree
In total, there are about 300 species of coin trees. Many specimens take root not only in special greenhouses, but also in simple apartment conditions. For room content, tree-shaped, ground-cover, spike-shaped, decorative-flowering species of crassus are calculated.
"Money tree" belongs to tree species of plants. This group includes familiar fat women with a characteristic stiff trunk, dense leaves. Some specimens may radically differ from each other, have a different description. In turn, they are divided into the following varieties:
Ovata. Also has the name "Coin Tree", "Bear's Eye". The maximum height of the tree is 2 m, the thickness of the trunk is 30 cm. The leaves are brightly emerald in color, elliptical in shape, of small size. Some varieties of Ovata have a red border around the perimeter of the sheets.The plant blooms in white, inflorescences are collected in the form of umbrellas. From such a money tree it is easy to form a bonsai, a branching composition.
Ovata Minor. Representatives of the species have a beautiful, non-trivial shape. A miniature plant barely reaches a height of 20 cm with a maximum trunk width of 2 cm. An interesting color of green leaves with a scarlet hue makes the plant ideal for creating home compositions.
Ovata Sunset. It stands out with expressive red-yellow-white painting on the leaves. A beautiful hybrid must always be kept in place with plenty of natural light. Otherwise, the leaves of the plant will lose their unique color.
Face The leaves of this species are oval with a pointed tip. The sheet plate is large with a raised end and sides bent down.
The hobbit. The hybrid was created by breeders by crossing an ordinary toast with milkweed. The result is inverted leaves connected from the base to the middle. The trunk is more branched than that of simple Ovata. The perennial hobbit has several variegated varieties called Golum, Chimera and others.
Undulatifolia. A non-standard variety of Crassulaceae is distinguished by silver-blue flat sheets. The tips are slightly wrinkled, have a reddish tint.
Tips and rules for growing and caring for a plant
Most often, flower growers grow a fatty Ovat species on their windowsills. An unpretentious money tree with a thick trunk and oval leaves does not require special conditions of detention. It is enough to remember his love of sunlight, to take into account the period of growth and rest. If you choose the right pot, type of soil and top dressing, you can get a natural home decor with ideal characteristics.
Soil and pot size
It is possible to determine whether the land has been correctly selected for the money tree by the state of its leaves. If they are bright green with red tips, dense and fleshy, it means that the soil copes well with its nutritional function. In order for a fat woman to grow strong and bloom, she needs to create all the conditions for this.
Money tree is suitable only for loose soil with a lot of sand and drainage. A breathable structure will prevent fluid stagnation. After watering, excess moisture should go into the pan, and not remain in the soil.
Plant growth depends on the quality of the soil. For an underdeveloped root system, a special composition consisting of several layers will be required. The bottom layer of 1 cm is laid out with pebbles, broken brick. In the middle is a soil mixture of earth, river sand, humus. The top is covered with expanded clay.
The root system of the Crassula will develop well in a wide, shallow pot. Width should be at least 1.5 times the diameter of the crown. The tank must be stable with a flat bottom to prevent overweight and tipping of the plant. The size of the money tree depends on the depth of the pot. If it is planted in a long flowerpot, it will be pulled upward, in a low planter - a natural branching of the plant will occur.
For planting a money tree, you can not use mixtures based on peat or moss. Such soil retains moisture for a long time, which will lead to decay of the roots of the plant.
Temperature
The usual room temperature of 20-25 ° C is suitable for Crassula. The minimum threshold is 10 ° C, the maximum is 32 ° C. In summer, the pot can be taken out onto the balcony or porch. To lower the temperature, the fat woman can be rearranged. If the temperature goes beyond the comfortable limits for the plant, the flower goes into a state of complete fading.
In winter, the money tree is better to move to a cool place. The temperature should be maintained in the range of 14-16 ° C. The fat woman can winter on the loggia, on the northern windowsill. The state of the plant must be constantly monitored in order to notice changes in time for the worse.
Air humidity
Mint does not need to control a humid environment. Dry indoor air in the summer does not harm him. The plant calmly shoots and grows leaves.Once a month, it can be sprayed from a spray bottle or doused with water from a shower. In the latter case, it is necessary to close the ground with polyethylene.
All types of succulents are used to low humidity. As neighbors on the windowsill, plants with high moisture requirements will not suit them. Remove dust and dirt with your own hands from the leaves with a damp cloth.
Lighting
An ideal place for representatives of succulents is the windowsill. It is better if the windows are facing south, southeast. On the south window, plants will have to shade when the sun is at its zenith. The north side is not a taboo for the fat girl. But, the money tree will go up, the branching will stop, and the stems will become weak and cease to stiffen.
For such plants, lighting plays the most significant role. With a lack of light, the crassula can completely stop growing, become ill and even die. In the summer, in addition to light, the plant has a need for fresh air. If there is no way to take the pot outside, the room should be periodically ventilated, caring for without drafts.
Watering
Money tree categorically does not like excessive moisture. Excess moisture will lead to decay of the roots, trunk, branches. After which the plant will be impossible to save. If the earth is constantly wet, fungal diseases will develop, the leaves will turn yellow and fall off.
Due to the constant accumulation of moisture by the leaves, excessive watering poses a greater danger to the redgrass than its lack. Such a plant will delight the magnificent and green crown of those who constantly forget to water it. Crassula grows freely without water for a month. Recommended watering schedule: in summer - 1 time per week, with the onset of cold weather - 1 time in two weeks.
Fertilizer and fertilizer
Fertilizing is necessary for the plant at all stages of growth, especially after transplantation. Special top dressing is included in the soil for certain types of plants.It is recommended to plant a money tree in a mixture of soils for succulents and ficus. As depleted, the nutrients originally contained in the soil will need to be replenished. For fat women, fertilizer is the same as for cacti.
Feeding should begin in early spring. Finding the right period is easy. As soon as a couple of leaves appear, then it's time to increase the activity of vegetation. Mineral fertilizers supply the soil once a month. You can carry out the procedure more often, but then you need to reduce the amount of nutrients.
Fertilizers in granular form are applied to moistened soil and mixed. This is done to avoid causing burns to the roots. Solids will slowly disintegrate and will not reach the roots too quickly. Active top dressing should not be long.
Crown formation
Due to branching shoots and their strong growth during the growing season, the plant may lose its decorative appearance. The formation of the crown will help to restore its former attractiveness. In addition to increasing decorativeness, pruning is carried out to improve color stability, simulate a strong trunk, and facilitate the care of a representative of succulents. There are several crown formation patterns:
To strengthen the central trunk. In young fat women, branching shoots and foliage in the lower part are removed. At the age of the tree at the time of fertilizing, all only the formed branches are removed.
Hanging shoots from the tops. The formation of a crown like a bonsai can be carried out after strengthening the trunk. Otherwise, the flimsy base may not withstand the load.
Low, compact bush. You can stop stretching, add splendor and volume if you regularly tear off the leaves on the trunk. To slow growth will be a temporary halt in watering.
Spreading shrub. Money tree will increase in width if you constantly pinch the shoots in the upper part of the bush.Removal of shoots from the apical buds will provoke branching of shoots from the sinuses below the cut.
Transfer
The best time to plant a fat woman in a new soil is the first half of March. During its development, the plant is easier to tolerate the change of soil and pot. In the summer and autumn, the crassula is transplanted when absolutely necessary, if the container is not suitable in size, diseases or pests are found.
According to the rules of transplantation, all plants need a change of soil and pot every year. Flowers from 3 years and more should change habitat once every two years. Frequent transplants to the fat woman are contraindicated. Each event is stress for the tree, it requires a lot of time for adaptation and recovery. Excessive movements can damage fragile leaves. To make money, an adult plant is transplanted according to the following scheme step by step:
Clean a new pot, prepare a mixture of soil, drainage, humus;
Lay rubble, broken brick on the bottom of the pot;
Cover the substrate with fresh soil;
Make small holes around the trunk, loosen the tree and pull it out of the old pot;
Soil at the base is not removed; only dead, rotten roots can be removed;
Grease the places of cuts with wood ash;
Leave the plant for several hours to dry;
Install the money tree in the center of the new capacity;
Add earth to the root neck and water abundantly;
If decayed roots are found during the transplantation of a fat woman, for the purpose of resuscitation they plant a plant in a mixture of sand, turf and humus.
Bloom
To see a money tree strewn with white inflorescences is a great success. This plant is not often happy with color, because it grows slowly and requires special conditions for the appearance of buds. If this event occurs, then the owner of the fat woman will be pleased with small white flowers, similar to stars, tied on some or all of the young shoots.
Crassula can bloom at any time of the year.More often this happens in autumn or winter. If this moment does not come for a long time, you should find the reasons for the lack of bud formation. Money tree will not bloom under the influence of the following factors:
The plant is constantly in the light;
The soil is dense and acidic;
The earth is constantly moistened;
Stems and leaves are damaged by pests;
The bush is affected by a fungus, other diseases.
Breeding methods
There are several ways to propagate a fat woman. Choosing the right option depends on the purpose and expectations of the grower. Each method has its own characteristics, therefore it requires a clear definition and a detailed explanation of the actions.
Cuttings and leaf
The easiest way to divide the money tree, especially if you need to save all the characteristics of the variety. Using cuttings, you can quickly grow a young, but already grown plant at home. Material for propagation can be taken at any time of the year. Young shoots remaining after the formation of the crown, small processes that take root from the leaf take root well.
Cuttings for reproduction can only be healthy, well-developed shoots. Curved, thin branches are not suitable, because the growing tree will take the same shape. A stalk of 5-10 cm is considered to be good material, with a minimum of 3 knots and 3 pairs of leaves. Cut it from the top or from the stem. For rooting, part of the plant is placed in water. Processing with special tools to speed up the process is not required.
Removing a money tree from a leaf is a long, but real process. The roots form quickly, which cannot be said about the sprout itself. A dense green leaf is suitable for dividing in this way. It is better to remove material from the middle of the branch. After cutting, the leaf is placed in water or directly into the ground. It should just be on the surface in a horizontal position. The base of the sheet should be immersed in a substance of 5 mm.
Seeds
Reproduction by seed is rare.This is due to the long process of plant formation, large time and labor costs. This method is used by breeders to grow new varieties, hybrids. At home, planting and caring for the seeds of a money tree is carried out as follows:
Small containers are well washed and disinfected;
Fill them with a soil mixture;
On the surface of the sheet land, seeds are sprinkled and sprinkled with sand;
Spray with water from a spray bottle and cover with glass or film;
After 2-3 weeks, the first shoots appear;
For seedlings, prepare other pots with sod-leaf soil;
When the plants grow to 5 cm, they are transferred to light soil, placed in a place with a constant temperature of 15-18 ° C.
Diseases and Pests
The main factors leading to disease and the appearance of pests in the rosula are dampness and drafts. The reason for the development of all negative events is improper care. The most dangerous period for fat women is winter. Ailments appear at this time due to a lack of lighting, temperature fluctuations, the operation of heating devices. With insufficient attention, the plant may suffer from the following diseases and pests:
Fungal diseases. Defeat spores occur in the cold season. Gray, wet rot is manifested by brown spots, constantly increasing and diverging to the entire sheet. Treatment consists in transplanting the plant into disinfected soil, removing diseased shoots. Fungal spores will eliminate the decrease in the number of irrigation, airing the premises, disinfection of sections with a solution of potassium permanganate.
Bacterial diseases. Outwardly, they resemble a fungus. Such diseases are treated with fungicides. Then it is necessary to spray with means based on penicillin, gentamicin, so that the leaves do not begin to crumble.
Shield. Female insects attach to leaves, stems and remain motionless. All affected areas must be smeared with kerosene and pests removed manually.Then the whole fat woman must be treated with a solution of laundry soap and tobacco.
Spider mite. A silver coating on the stems and leaves speaks of the appearance of the insect. Inaction leads to yellowing of the plate and its death. A sharp rise in the level of humidity will help to remove the pest. In such conditions, the tick does not live. Money tree should be abundantly sprayed with water and placed in a plastic bag.
Powdery Worm. It lives in the axils of leaves, eats their juice, plant tissues. This leads to a weakening of the immunity of the fat woman, dropping foliage. Remove the insect with a stream of water. Pest habitats are wiped with a cotton swab dipped in garlic infusion.
Root Worm. Detect a pest only when transplanting plants. The roots will be covered with growths, insect movements are noticeable. Prior to this, the cause of the deterioration of the fat will be unknown. Remove worms under warm running water, treat with pesticides.
