[How to grow]
▼Placement
The white parts of the leaves lack chlorophyll, which means they grow slower and absorb less light and water than regular Pachira.
It does not like strong sunlight, but because it has a low photosynthetic rate, if it is too dark, the stems will thin and the leaves will fall off.
Milky Way is more difficult to grow than the regular Pachira.
It is sensitive to cold, so it is best to keep it away from windows at night during the winter.

▼Watering
Water only after the soil has dried completely. The reason for using a small pot is to allow the soil to dry quickly and prevent root rot.
Be careful when watering, especially in winter, as the soil may be moist inside even if the surface is dry.

▼Other points
Good ventilation is also important for growing thick trunks and preventing insects. It also helps the soil in the pot dry out quickly. Strong winds can remove moisture from the leaves, causing the tips to wither.

▼Fertilizer
Fertilization is generally recommended from May to September, but avoid periods when it is too hot. In July and August, do not fertilize if the temperature is close to 35°C.
