Plant Name
Pithecellobium confertum | Everfresh tree

This plant hails from Japan and is quite the crowd-pleaser when it comes to foliage. What's intriguing is that its leaves have a nifty habit of closing up at night to save water, a phenomenon known as the "sleep exercise."

Plant Size
Around 5 ft.

Every plant is unique and can therefore differ from the plant shown on the photo.

Light: 
Full Sun / Outdoor Shaded / Bright Indirect Light / Direct Morning Sun

Water: 
Water until it drains at the bottom of the pot
Once a week or when the top 1-2" soil is dry

If the leaves are closed during the day, check the soil to ensure it's not dry. 

Additional Care Tips:

Why Is My Everfresh Tree Shedding Leaves?

It’s common for the Everfresh tree to shed some leaves when it’s moved to a new environment. Here’s how to care for it during this acclimation phase:

  1. Acclimation Process: Leaf shedding often occurs as the tree adjusts to changes in light, temperature, and humidity in its new home. Don’t worry—this is a normal part of the process.

  2. Light: Place your Everfresh tree in bright, indirect natural light, which is ideal for its growth. If natural light is limited, you can use a grow light as a supplement, making sure it’s positioned at a distance that provides enough light without causing stress to the plant.

  3. Watering: Check the soil moisture before watering. The top 1-2 inches of soil should be dry before adding water. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot.

  4. Humidity: Indoor environments can be dry, which can stress the tree. Increase humidity by misting the leaves or placing the plant on a tray filled with pebbles and water, ensuring the pot does not sit in the water.

  5. Patience: The tree may continue shedding leaves for a short while, but once it acclimates, you’ll see it stabilize and new growth will follow.
