# About a week ago I noticed my money tree plant had a fungal…

_Posted by Lilly on 2026-03-01_

About a week ago I noticed my money tree plant had a fungal infection, and I physically removed all of the fungus and repotted it afterwards. I thought it was doing well until about 2 days ago I noticed its leaves were yellowing. I also forgot to mention that after doing some research I removed a lot of its leaves because had lots of discoloration and didn’t look to be the best about 3-4 days before I posted this. Should I be worried about my money trees health?

My money tree was doing this a while back, and what I did was stop watering it so much, maybe about once every 3-4 weeks, and also I bought a grow light because my house doesn’t get much natural light, and it’s grown to about 3 times the size since! Maybe try what I did and see if that helps. Good luck! 💚
