Not too old. As you will figure out yourself in few years when it really grows

Hi, your money tree, or Crassula ovata, might be two or three years old. They can eventually get to perhaps two metres tall, but they'd have to be very old to get to that height!

Re: My first money tree
Looks like a rooted cutting so some of it might be a few years old but only a few months since it was cut from its parent. If you get the conditions right a mature plant will be flowering nowphil1984 wrote:Hi guys, I got a money tree last week and was just wondering if anyone has any ideas to how old it might be??

Be careful with frost. That is how I lost my big one.
