Pilea 'Marmorata-silvergleam' care

Collectors know Pilea 'Marmorata-silvergleam' for its steady pace; it keeps a compact rosette even in imperfect corners.

Give it bright indirect light; leaf colour fades noticeably in darker spots. Water sparingly, letting the pot dry almost through. Yellowing lower leaves almost always mean too much, not too little.

It is happiest at a humid corner or grouped planting, potted in coco coir with added bark. Under good conditions it may flower indoors, though the foliage is the point.
