Meet the Brachychiton Rupestris, also known as the “Lucky Tree” or “Bottle Tree” - a sculptural species from Australia that fascinates with its bottle-shaped trunk and extraordinary resilience.
Organically grown from seed at TOMs FLOWer CLUB, this plant is already showing its characteristic thickening stem base - the beginning of its future water reservoir.
This stunning tree loves lots of light and should be placed in the sunniest location in your home. During summer, it thrives outdoors - a balcony or terrace stay in fresh air greatly benefits its growth. In winter, it prefers cooler conditions (around 10-15°C) and significantly reduced watering.
Not hardy, but extremely robust and forgiving, it’s best to keep it slightly too dry rather than too wet. The bottle-shaped trunk naturally stores water, allowing the plant to survive dry periods with ease.
