Pilea 'Marmorata-minima' care

Pilea 'Marmorata-minima' is a forgiving choice for most rooms, developing a trailing habit within its first year.

It does best in medium filtered light, though it tolerates brief departures without sulking. Water little and often, keeping the mix barely moist; the fastest way to lose one is a saucer left full.

Keep it at a humid corner or grouped planting; pot it in standard mix cut with a third perlite and refresh the top layer each spring. Propagation is straightforward from stem cuttings rooted in water.
