It was then brought to Europe, where it became widely circulated among plant lovers through sharing of cuttings, rather than commercial horticulture, earning it the nickname "the friendship plant."

Originating from the mountainous regions of Southern China, the Chinese Money Plant thrives in a moist, temperate environment. It's accustomed to the dappled sunlight of forest floors, which is key to replicating in home settings for the plant to thrive.
How Do You Care for a Chinese Money plant?
Caring for a Chinese Money Plant involves placing it in bright, indirect light with some direct sunlight, ideally in a warm room. Water the plant when the topsoil feels dry, reducing frequency in the winter months. These plants prefer a well-draining potting mix and can benefit from regular misting to maintain humidity.
