Pilea Peperomioides

Pilea, AKA the Chinese Money Plant, is a long-time favourite among houseplant owners. They are very easy to look after, just make sure you keep it out of direct sunlight and monitor your watering. 

They are also really easy to propagate. Look out for pups; once they've got a solid root stem and several leaves, re-pot and share with friends to bring wealth and prosperity!

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

Water

Only light watering required. Wait until top 2-5cm of soil is dry before watering. Let the plant drink from underneath; avoid watering from the top as this can cause the stems to become mushy.

Light

Likes bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight may scorch the leaves. Pilea grow towards the light so rotate the pot every few days.

Humidity

No specific humidity requirements but dust the leaves occasionally.
