QuestionFrom what i have been reading,this is a fairly easy plant to care for.Good news to me.
My questions are, will my money tree produce any seeds i can replant?
and in regards to pruning,If i want my tree to grow larger should i prune the roots? or what and how do i prune it?
thank-you for your input. It is greatly appreciated.

AnswerSunny,
If you want it to grow larger you should not prune it at all until it is as large as you want it to be. You should repot it once a year between April 15th and June 15th into a pot with a diameter 2 inches larger than the pot you took it out of.
In nature the pachira aquatica becomes a 60 foot tall tree. It will not bloom or produce edible nuts (seeds) unless grown in the ground in a tropical area. The following website will give you further info:

Good luck.
