Review: Revised Review - Kudos to Costa! - UPDATE: I reached out to Costa about the horrendous state my plant was when it arrived. They were kind in their response, and immediately sent out a replacement plant. It arrived yesterday, and it is in perfect condition, save a couple of (expected) broken leaves from shipping. It's fully alive and well, and looks waaaaaaay better than the first plant I received (which continues on its death march - I'd hoped the small part that appeared still alive would fight to live, but alas and alack, it's continuing to die off). I am VERY happy with the replacement plant, it looks very healthy (no brown leaves, no funky smell) so I'm very confident it will continue to thrive. Major kudos to Costa's guarantee - they do indeed honor it, so for those that have also had the bad luck of getting a bad plant, be sure to reach out to them and they will make it right. Changing my rating to 5 stars. Thank you, Costa! Original Review: Disappointed that the money tree arrived half dead and sickly. Half the leaves are shriveled - but not dry shriveled like they were out of water too long, but wet shriveled like they were kept in the dark with too much moisture for too long, if that makes sense. The healthiest of the leaves were broken clean off. The plant overall looks super sad and definitely not good. I reached out to Costa to find out what my options are since this is not returnable to desertcart, but Costa supposedly has a guarantee. I've gotten radio silence on their end. Not happy. Will revise this review if I ever hear from them on this fiasco. I bought 3 plants at the same time from Costa - the other two are perfect, this one is the problematic/dead one. Such a bummer!
Review: Excellent Buy - The money tree arrived today in perfect health. It is beautiful. when you unpack it, it easiest to open the top and bottom of the box while over the sink and raise the box. Gently remove the paper protection and plastic around the bottom. The plant is pet friendly, but it is always best to pet proof the dirt by placing river rocks over the dirt. If you use polished stones check to make certain that don't have minerals that could be harmful to the plant or cat. Water your money tree roughly every 1–2 weeks, but only when the top 2–4 inches of soil are dry.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: The plant has stones, am I supposed to remove them?**
A: Hi ssm984! Thank you for reaching out! You can soak the stones in water for about 15 minutes or until the glue has soften. Once the glue is soft you will be able to gently pull the stones up. If you have any questions, please let is know at questions@costafarms.com.

**Q: How big will the Money Tree get? Has anyone had to repot their tree yet?**
A: Hi! The Pachira tree can grow to be about 6 to 7 feet indoors with plenty of care and time. The size of the tree when grown as an indoor plant is largely determined by the age of the plant and the pot size. We hope this helps!

**Q: How Often Should I Water This?**
A: Hi Alexa! It is recommended to water the plant once every 7 to 10 days and adjust for your environment as needed. The soil takes longer to dry in cooler temperatures and dries out quicker in warmer temperatures. We hope this helps!

**Q: I can't get it to ship anywhere in California.  Is this because of the planter material?**
A: Hi! Thank you for your interest in our plants! Unfortunately at this time we are unable to ship to California due to state restrictions. We are working towards obtaining our certification to allow us to ship to California but at this time we do not have an ETA when this will be done. Please reach out to us at questions@costafarms.com and we will gladly notify you when shipping becomes available.

### ⭐ BEWARE! 3 MONEY TREES DIED - 11 OF 13 OF MY COSTA FARMS PLANTS HAVE ALL DIED VERY QUICKLY!
*by L***K on November 17, 2025*

Over the past 10 months, I have purchased 3 Money Tree plants (in Jan, Apr, Oct of 2025) AND ALL HAVE DIED! Furthermore, I have purchased a total of 14 plants and trees through Amazon (and in some cases The Home Depot). All grown by and shipped directly from COSTA FARMS. Unfortunately, with the exception of two plants (one of which is still struggling), ALL HAVE DIED WITHIN WEEKS OR A FEW MONTHS OF ARRIVAL. Please note that I have successfully maintained healthy houseplants for over 40 years, so this experience is unusual for me. The plants from COSTA FARMS always arrive looking beautiful, pretty much like the photos used on the Amazon site above used to sell you the plant, but soon after arrival, they begin to deteriorate—losing leaves and declining rapidly. I suspect this may be due to intensive fertilization during cultivation. Then go into shock once they leave the facility at COSTA FARMS which leads to their death. Notably, the plants never COMPLETELY die within the 30-day return window, making it difficult to claim a refund. THE PHOTO I HAVE PROVIDED OF THE MONEY TREE WAS TAKEN LESS THEN 30 DAYS AFTER IT ARRIVED AT MY HOME. IT LOOKED LIKE THE PHOTO ABOVE ON THE AMAZON SITE TO SELL IT WHEN IT ARRIVED. And disappointingly this is also EXACTLY what the 2 previous Money Trees did soon after their arrival after being grown and shipped directly from COSTA FARMS. Unfortunately for the first 2 I missed the Amazon 30-day return window because I wasted time following COSTA FARMS instructions trying to save the plant. So I was out the high cost of the plant. So, BEWARE, if you purchase a plant through a vendor that works with COSTA FARMS and that plant or tree is shipped directly from COSTA FARMS and you notice the plant or tree showing signs of decline within the first 25 days, I HIGHLY recommend based on my numerous and repeated personal experiences with COSTA FARMS plants and trees, that you begin initiating a return or refund request immediately because your plant or tree will die soon. Otherwise, you risk losing both the plant and your investment. My attempts to resolve these issues directly with Costa Farms have repeatedly been unsuccessful. They consistently refer me back to the third-party vendors (Amazon or Home Depot) and have refused to replace or refund any plants, citing their policy. I am therefore convinced that COSTA FARMS is just running off of SCAMMING CONSUMERS. I have talked with them directly numerous times and NOT ONCE have they been willing to replace their unhealthy plants. They hide behind the 3rd party vendors (Amazon and Home Depot are 2 I have used) that they go through so they can successfully SCAM THE CONSUMER and refuse to accept responsibility in any way. They have always REFUSED to replace or refund my $$$ claiming it's their POLICY to make the consumer (me) request refund through the 3rd party vendor (Amazon in this case. Home Depot in other cases of mine). Fortunately, this time I was ON TOP OF THE RETURN WINDOW and as it was now obvious my Money Tree was definitely dying – I requested my REFUND within the 30-day refund window with Amazon. But I did talk with COSTA FARMS first – who again REFUSED to stand by their product. Based on my repeated negative experiences, I advise caution when purchasing plants supplied by COSTA FARMS online. I’m convinced that despite following all care instructions and having a long history of successful plant care, I have been disappointed multiple times with plants from COSTA FARMS. Another disappointing plant that I recently purchased and is currently dying (I purchased through The Home Depot - but was grown and delivered to me directly from COSTA FARMS) is the Boston Fern. It started shedding its leaves off the vines immediately. I’ve successfully grown Boston Ferns for the past 25 years. But there is nothing I can do to help this one. (I’m providing a pic of this Boston Fern too for your reference. It was DOUBLE this size when it arrived at my home approx. 45 days ago from COSTA FARMS). It is definitely dying. I again called COSTA FARMS (today 11/17/25)- which finally prompted me to leave this REVIEW regarding many of their plants because of the FACT that they are ONCE AGAIN refusing to stand by their poor-quality plants and are refusing to replace or refund me the high price of it. Citing their company policy, they instructed me to contact The Home Depot for the refund.
