Pilea, one of the most popular plants of recent years, has been included as a Chinese money plant and Missionary flower in our Turkish.

Pilea, which is popular with the beauty of its light-permeable leaf, is actually among the simple plants to care for.

It should not be exposed to direct sunlight and it is sufficient to keep the soil slightly moist.

For an optimal healthy Pilea, it is sufficient to change the pot and soil every two years.

When changing the pot-soil of your Pilea, it is sufficient to use multi-purpose or tropical peat-soil mixtures with good drainage.

When you remove the small shoots from the root sides of the mother plant during the flowerpot change and transfer them to a different flowerpot, you will multiply your Pilea. The ideal time for flowerpot change is spring.

It should not be exposed to direct sunlight, it will develop well in low or medium light level in front of the north and east window.

If you want to grow your pilea plant in front of windows facing south or west, there must be filtered daylight, especially in summer, it should not be exposed to direct sunlight.

If you want to see your Pilea in areas such as patio-Balcony-Terrace in summer, you should definitely take it to a shaded area.

If your Pilea Peperomioides plant receives light in all directions, the leafy will grow evenly.

The easiest method is to turn your flower pot around its axis from time to time.

Sudden changes in temperature and humidity have to be avoided.

The ideal temperature to keep the pilea plant is between 16-26 degrees.

It will be unhealthy in dry, moisture-free areas close to the heaters. If the environment where your plant is located is moisture-free, you can spray water on its leaves to ensure moisture.

The potted soil in which Pilea is located should not dry out completely, the fact that the upper surface of the soil starts to dry out indicates that your plant needs water.

Attention should be paid to the amount of irrigation, as excessive irrigation and long-term water accumulation under the pot will bring a number of diseases.

During irrigation, condensed liquid fertilizer-plant food suitable for general use should be added to green plants, not once a month in irrigation water.
