Chinese Money Plant (Pilea peperomioides)

Chinese Money Plant (Pilea peperomioides)
Chinese Money Plant is famous for its lore of attracting money into one’s life. Known for its charming beauty and dwarf size, it’s a perfect addition to the windowsill garden. The round, shiny, peltate leaves become mounded as the plant matures and give the appearance of large, green coins stacked on top of one another. Originating from Southwest China, it came into our collection in the 1980s and for several years remained a mystery until finally it was identified. Under cooler growing conditions, it will flower in the winter time although, as with most Pileas, the flowers are somewhat insignificant. Its adaptation to low light and succulent leaf structure make it an easy-care plant. We are pleased to bring you this rare and highly sought-after houseplant.
