Plant Care
Thrives in bright direct light, but can tolerate bright to medium indirect light.
Water every 1-2 weeks, allowing soil to dry out between waterings. Expect to water more often in brighter light and less often in lower light.
This is a pet friendly plant.
A self-propagator, the Pilea produces sweet little babies or ‘pups’ on it’s own, which pop up from the soil surrounding the mother plant.
