Arrived overnight, looking exactly like the photos
Ordered Tuesday at 8 PM, delivered Wednesday by 9:30 AM. Plant was healthy, tall (about 16 inches), came in the charcoal pot exactly as shown. The packaging was thoughtful — wood shavings, tied stems, no soil spill. Two weeks in and it's already pushed out a new leaf.

Survived me. That's a big deal.
I have killed every plant I have ever owned. Got this for the bedroom. Watered it once in 6 weeks. Still alive, still growing. The team also responded on WhatsApp within an hour when I asked if it was getting too much sun. Not paid to say this.

Beautiful plant, slightly smaller than expected
Plant itself is gorgeous and very healthy. Only minor gripe — I expected the medium size to be taller, but it's closer to 14 inches than 18. Still very happy with it. The Khurja ceramic pot is honestly the best part.

About the Money Plant
The Money Plant, also known as Pothos or Epipremnum Aureum, is a tropical vine native to the Solomon Islands. In India, it's prized for its heart-shaped leaves, trailing vines, and easy-care nature. The plant comes in various varieties including solid green, Golden (yellow variegation), N'Joy (cream and green variegation), and White (mostly white with green edges). These different varieties offer visual diversity while sharing the same easy-care characteristics. Money Plants are perennial, meaning they remain green and vibrant year-round, making them a lasting addition to your indoor garden.
Light & Placement
Money Plants thrive in indirect, diffused light but can adapt to lower light conditions. They do best when protected from direct sunlight, which can scorch their leaves. For optimal growth, place your Money Plant near a window with sheer curtains or in a room with bright, indirect light. They can tolerate lower light, but growth may slow down. Rotate your plant occasionally to ensure even growth on all sides. Money Plants are versatile for placement—they can sit on tabletops, hang in baskets, or climb on supports. They're perfect for living rooms, bedrooms, offices, and bathrooms where light levels may vary.
Watering & Humidity
Water your Money Plant when the top inch of soil feels dry. These plants prefer slightly moist soil but can tolerate occasional drying out. Water thoroughly until it drains from the bottom of the pot, then empty the saucer to prevent root rot. Reduce watering in winter when growth slows. Money Plants can also grow in water—simply place cuttings in a jar with fresh water, changing it weekly. They appreciate average household humidity but can adapt to drier conditions. If you notice brown leaf tips, it may indicate the air is too dry—misting occasionally can help.
Pet Safety & Toxicity
Important: Money Plants are toxic to pets if ingested. The plant contains calcium oxalate crystals that can cause mouth irritation, drooling, and vomiting in cats and dogs. If you have pets, consider placing the Money Plant in an area they can't access. For pet owners, we recommend choosing pet-safe alternatives from gardengro's collection. If you suspect your pet has chewed on your Money Plant, contact your veterinarian immediately. Despite this concern, many plant lovers still choose Money Plants for their benefits, taking precautions to keep them away from curious pets.
Vastu & Symbolism
In Indian culture, Money Plants are believed to bring prosperity, good luck, and positive energy to a home. According to Vastu principles, placing a Money Plant in the southeast corner of your home or office is said to attract wealth and abundance. The plant's heart-shaped leaves are thought to symbolize love and friendship, while its trailing vines represent growth and expansion. Many businesses in India keep Money Plants to attract financial success. While these beliefs are cultural rather than scientific, they contribute to the plant's popularity as a thoughtful housewarming or business-opening gift.
