Pilea Friendship plant 6’

The Pilea Plant (Pilea peperomioides) is a  popular houseplant that is easy to grow and propagate. It has the unique quality of sending up off-shoots making it perfect for sharing with your friends.

likes bright, indirect light but can handle a range of conditions; just be sure to shield the tender foliage from intense, direct sun and let them acclimate gradually.

Wait until the top inch of soil dries out before watering. Give the mix a thorough soaking and let it drain completely … don’t rewater until the top inch of soil dries out again.

Use a rich and very well draining medium. 2/3 peat moss or coco coir is a good base to mix with 1/3 perlite or other inorganic amendments to increase aeration.
