Pilea Pepperomiodes

Pilea & Peperomia

Pilea / Peperomia

Pilea and Peperomia offer a range of small, cute, and quirky varieties that look like a Dr. Seuss creation! They love bright, indirect light, so a good windowsill, and would prefer to dry out slightly in between waterings. You can find Pilea in upright or trailing types, but the most well-known is the Chinese money plant shown in the photo. When happy, this one sprouts out babies that can be planted into another pot, providing endless houseplants.

They are pet-friendly and easy to care for.
