Hello!

I bought a money tree last month from a local plant store. I read lots of articles and watched videos on its care since I’m a beginner, I really want this to live!

After letting it adapt in its corner for about 2-3 weeks, I repotted it with fresh soil and plant food. I also snipped the rubber bands and was surprised at the amount of root there was since lots of videos and writers said to expect a small amount of short roots.

I’m pleased to say my tree is growing so fast and beautifully! I water when the soil is dry and there are no signs of root rot or pests. However, a few leaves are showing patches. My mom wondered if it was a fungus. I assumed my leaves were scorched as I get lots of sunlight in my room so I moved it to a more indirect location.

I know I can prune them but unless I have to I don’t want to. I’m hoping someone can teach me something I’m not finding on the internet; I can’t find pictures that depict what I’m experiencing! Thank you!

That does look a bit like sunburn so I think you were wise to move it into a less Sunny spot. It does not look fungal to me but anything is possible I suppose.
