• Botanical name: Pilea Peperomioides
• Common name: Chinese money plant, pancake plant, Pilea
• Native to: China
• About: Popular lore maintains that a Norwegian missionary, Agnar Espegren, took cuttings home with him in the 1940s, and shared them with friends and family. Those plants were spread throughout Scandinavia, and eventually the world, as people passed cutting between friends.
• Pets and children: Pilea is non-toxic to animals or people.
• WATERING: It prefers a well-draining potting soil. The soil needs to mostly dry out between waterings, with more watering required in warmer, sunnier weather. If the leaves start to look slightly droopy, that’s a sign that the plant needs water.
• To keep your Chinese money plant nicely shaped, rotate it at least once a week to prevent it from getting lopsided.
• The large leaves tend to accumulate dust, so these plants benefit from regular showers, or at least wiping down of their leaves.
• FEEDING: Treat monthly with an all-purpose plant fertilizer during the spring and summer growing seasons.
• You may also want to put your plant outdoors as temperatures warm, but, again, take care to keep it out of direct sunlight.
• LIGHT: Bright light, with no direct sunlight. Direct sun scorches leaves, and light shade may encourage larger leaves.
• TEMPERATURE: They’re said to be hardy down to freezing, and a period of cool temperatures may make them more likely to produce their tiny white flowers on pink stems.
• VAT included
• plant comes in a plastic nursery container
