Money may not grow on Trees, but in Hǎikǒu, China there's a Money Tree

It's famous, but not a lot of people know it. Some people don't like this tree. My friends don't have this tree in their homes.

There are no flowers on the tree. The roots are brown and thin. The trunk of the tree is big, thick, brown, soft and rough. The leaves are smooth, thin and green. Some branches have six leaves, while some branches have five leaves.

We bought it because we have this during the New Year. My family will have long life, no sickness and have lots of money in Chinese New Year.
