# What’s happening to my money tree ? I got this as a gift on…

What’s happening to my money tree ?

I got this as a gift on Valentine’s Day, it already had some of it spotting but since taking it in, I’ve repotted and gotten a lot of new growth since the repot but now the spots won’t go away.

I usually have her near this window as it gets lots of great light. Once I’ve moved her here, I started to see all that growth ….is it the sun or could it be something else? I’m afraid to move her because she seems to be really liking it here, other than those spots.

Money trees do not like direct sunlight. Sunlight will burn the leaves and cause spotting like yours has now. They prefer bright, indirect light.

I take mine outside once a month to do a deep water. A couple months ago I forgot about it, it rained, and ended up in direct sun. It is still recovering as you can tell by the lower leaves. 😕

Oh it still looks great! Do you prune it ever? I’ve never had one until now and I heard they are difficult lol
