 How to Find Wholesale Sources


There are many different ways to grow a money tree. In this article, I'll teach you how to do it the right way and tell you what plants work best for the job.

Growing a money tree is very simple and will teach your children (or you!) valuable skills they can use in life such as gardening or simply patience. For the purpose of this article, I'll refer to the money tree as "agba", but you could call it a "money plant" if you wish.

What You Need:
   – Agba (money tree)
   – Sterilized potting soil/compost/manure materials (optional)
   – Pot to hold your agba (can be anything as long as it holds the water well). A disposable styrofoam cup works well. I use my large Bob's Red Mill Potting Soil Mix .   This is what I use to feed mine and will explain why later on.
    – Soil-less potting mix (optional)
What You Do:
1.  Place a layer of fertilizer in the bottom of your agba's pot. This will be fed to the tree every second or third watering session.
2.  Next, add some soil-less potting mix to the entire inside of your agba's pot making sure to completely fill all sides and add even more if needed. Be sure not to skip any sections at this stage because it is difficult to fill gaps with soil mix later on and this will cause flooding on your agba when it rains or in other situations that may occur during its life span.
3.  Fill your agba's pot with water and give it a good stir (you may need to add some more water if you are using soil-less mix).
4.  Place the agba in its pot and fill the rest of its space with soil. You can use soil-less potting mix or regular potting soil like I do. If you use regular potting soil, you'll need to moisten it before pouring into the agba's pot.
5.  Now comes the fun part! The next step is what makes your money tree grow. Gently shake your agba's pot in a circular motion while counting to ten. This will help the soil settle and will help you find any air bubbles that may have risen to the top of your pot during this step.
6.  That's it! Now all you have to do is wait and watch it grow money right before your eyes. If you're in a hurry, give it some water every day until it grows (be sure not to over water though).
How To Grow Your Money Tree:
1.  Begin by gently shaking your agba's pot from side to side by slightly tipping the entire pot from one side to another just like when watering plants.   Count slowly to 10 while doing this.
2.  Next, tip your agba's pot so that it is slightly tilted as shown in the picture below. This allows water to fall from the top of the pot into the soil rather than on top of your agba. Again, count slowly to ten while doing this:
3.  After you've successfully performed steps one and two, your agba's roots will begin to grow.
How Do You Know When Your Money Tree Is Ready To Be Harvested?
1.  Your agba will begin to grow leaves as it begins to age and grow. This will happen regardless of whether or not you receive any money from your money tree because it does this out of dedication for you (it becomes attached).   There is nothing special about the leaves except that they are very easy to harvest.   The leaves are what contain the money.
2.  You'll notice fruit growing on the leaves of your agba's leaves.   They are sweet and juicy but very small, so I suggest you only harvest them on special occasions and add them to your own dishes.
3.  The tree is ready to be harvested when the fruit appear near the end of its life span (expect to harvest around three months).   Harvest it ANY time from here because it will continue to grow after harvesting until it outgrows its pot and dies, making for a long-term investment for your money tree (in which case you can simply transplant it into another pot or garden bed).  
4.  You do not need to water your agba before harvesting.   Like I said before, it doesn't matter if you receive money or not because they always give fruit regardless of whether you water them or not.   The frequent watering after harvest is what makes the money grow.
5.  When you harvest your agba, you'll notice that the fruit contains very small coins that can be used as currency in most countries (please check with your local government's laws before using our currency).
Extra Tips:
1.  You can use any type of fertilizer that you wish from all-purpose to special (the ones made for trees are preferred) and it will have the same effect as long as you don't skip any steps in the article and follow the steps exactly.
2.  This is a very simple money tree to grow, but it can take several years before your agba will begin to start producing money or even see money in its fruit, so it's best not to get discouraged.   Patience pays off!
So there you have it, my recipe for growing a money tree.   I hope this information helps and best of luck!

In this entry, I discuss how to easily plant apple trees in your own yard and the various types of trees you can purchase for your home (both for eating and for decorating).
  When it comes to gardening, I have a love-hate relationship with most plants. This is because most plants need special care that my homes simply don't have at times (with children living in them). It's impossible to keep up with all the care that most plants need without neglecting their children. 
Out of all the types of plants we've planted in our yard, I've found that apple trees are the easiest to maintain. Most of the care they need is during their growing season, and then it requires very little maintenance throughout the rest of their life. 
Congratulations on purchasing your first home or deciding it's time to move up in size! If you're anything like many first-time homeowners, though, you're realizing that deciding on a property is only one small part of your home ownership experiences. You'll have to manage all of the details that come with home ownership.
For most people, these tasks include home maintenance and repair, as well as landscaping. This can be a real challenge for new homeowners, but it's important to remember that you're in charge of making this home a comfortable place to live in.   This article will help you learn how to landscape your yard by creating an outstanding look that will impress your friends and family members (or even potential buyers). 
Having a beautiful yard is one way to enhance the value of your home and make it more attractive on the market when you decide to sell. It's also a very enjoyable experience for you and your family to look forward to as a way to unwind after a busy day. As you'll see in this article, creating a distinctive landscape is quite easy. There are several plant types that will work well in the climate of your area, and the rest are easy to grow.
Unfortunately, many homeowners find their land is unsuitable for gardening due to its location or lack of suitable soil (this includes more than just the northern parts of North America). In such cases, it may be best to employ a professional company that specializes in landscaping services. The right company can help you create an attractive landscape that will fit your tastes and desires while also meeting all local building codes.

Which Apple Tree Should I Choose?
I first want to talk about choosing the apple tree that will work best for your location and needs. It's important that you consider these issues by asking yourself the following questions (and answering with your knowledge):
1.  How many apples would you like?   It's best to choose a tree that will be able to supply enough fruit for you and your family for several seasons in a row. This means you'll want to choose an original bearer tree, not a dwarf or seedling. Viable seedlings can be planted at four years of age, so they're often chosen as prolific bearing trees that don't take up much space in your yard. Dwarf trees can be planted at three years of age, so it's best not to make this choice.
2.  How much space do you have?   If you're going for a tree that will fit in a very small space (such as a container), you'll need to choose one that is a dwarf. However, if you have room for an average-sized tree, go with an original bearer tree. Many varieties of apple trees grow from 10-30 feet tall (and they can even grow taller), so finding the right one(s) to fit your property isn't difficult.
3.  How much room do you have?   Think about the type of ground you have (e.g. soft or rocky), whether there are any power lines in the area, and your willingness to spend money on a tree that needs expensive care and maintenance. If nothing else, you should be able to find an apple tree that fits into your budget and is easy to maintain on a daily basis.
The Basics of Planting an Apple Tree
When it comes to planting an apple tree in your yard, you'll need one with the following characteristics:
1.  A tree that will fit in the area where you want to plant it.   Apple trees can grow up to 30 feet tall, so finding one that isn't too large for your property may require some creativity and patience.
2.  A tree that is resistant to disease, has a high number of fruit bearing branches (for pollination), and will produce plenty of fruit for you and your family.   If you're selecting a dwarf tree, make sure it also has compact branching in order to reduce the amount of maintenance required (and make it easier for your kids to climb).
3.  A tree with healthy roots (or a root system capable of growing multiple times its size).   This will help it survive flooding or drought.
4.  A tree that produces blooms that may attract insects to the area.   This is very important if you want a healthy population of fruit-eating insects around the tree (such as bees and wasps).
5.  A fast-growing tree type suitable for your specific climate (e.g. hardiness zone, sun exposure, and soil conditions).   If you're planning on growing an apple tree in the cooler climate of Canada, you'll need one that's slow to grow such as a hardy hybrid English or New England variety. If you're in an extremely hot region, you'll probably want to find an Asian or European cultivar that can survive the summer heat.
Other Things to Consider When Planting an Apple Tree
Only a few types of apple trees are suitable for planting (as opposed to growing from seed), and you don't have to choose between apple trees and pear trees. In fact, you can even grow both fruit-bearing types of trees together in the same area if you want! Here are some tips on how to thinking about what tree to plant in your yard:
1.  When selecting a tree for your backyard, think about your needs first . This means focusing on what you want an apple tree to provide for you and your family, not just the fact that it will produce fruit. Think about what you'll be willing to spend on it as well, and then choose the one(s) with the best value.  
2.  Make a list of your requirements.   You should decide upon these following things:
-          How many apples do you want?
-          What time of year do you plan to harvest them?
-          How often will you have home maintenance needs (such as pruning)? 
-     How much space do you have for a tree?
3.  Consider your weather conditions .
