Pilea peperomioides - 2.5" Succulent

Pilea peperomioides, commonly known as the Chinese Money Plant or Pancake Plant, is a charming, easy-to-care-for houseplant prized for its round, coin-shaped leaves and compact, upright growth. Its unique foliage and attractive habit make it a perfect tabletop or shelf accent, bringing a touch of greenery and modern style to any indoor space.

Care Guide:

• Light: Bright, indirect light is ideal. Can tolerate some filtered sunlight but avoid harsh direct sun, which may scorch the leaves.

• Watering: Allow the top 1–2 inches of soil to dry out between waterings. Reduce watering in winter when growth slows.

• Temperature: Prefers 60–75°F (16–24°C); protect from cold drafts and frost.

• Humidity: Thrives in average indoor humidity; occasional misting can help in very dry conditions.

• Soil: Well-draining potting mix; a standard indoor mix with added perlite works well.

• Fertilizer: Feed monthly during spring and summer with a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer.

• Pruning: Remove any yellowing or damaged leaves to maintain a tidy appearance.

• Propagation: Easily propagated from stem or leaf cuttings and “pups” that grow at the base of the plant.
