Description

Known as Chinese Money Plants or missionary plants, Pilea peperomioides are compact and upright houseplants with rounded green leaves on long, arching stalks.

Very easy to grow and care for, these plants enjoy good light and high humidity and appreciate a regular misting - if you notice the leaves starting to curl, this means the plant isn’t getting enough light.

Fully deserving its coveted RHS Award of Garden Merit, you can be sure that this is a proven performer, guaranteed to be suitable for UK plant lovers at every level of experience. You can therefore grow these houseplants with confidence.

Originating from southwestern China, these are still quite rare plants, with lily pad style leaves that look lovely as they sway on any gentle breeze that enters the room.

Pilea loves lots of bright, indirect sunlight and reacts quickly to it, having a tendency to grow all of its leaves towards the light. As it grows quickly, it’s a good idea to rotate the plants a couple of times each week so that you get straight central stems with leaves in all directions.

Supplied as a set of six potted plants in 6cm nursery pots, growing to a height and spread of 50cm.

Top Tips

Your plant will enjoy a summer holiday outdoors, where it’ll make a great centrepiece for a patio table.

Care Information
  • Position in a warm room away from cold draughts and radiators.
  • Mist regularly to increase humidity.
  • The ideal temperature is between 15°C and 30°C.
  • Pilea prefer a bright spot away from the direct sunlight.
  • Allow the top of the soil to dry out between waterings.
  • Feed regularly when you see active growth.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
