Full description and specifications

Pilea pubescens 'Silver Cloud' is an attractive decorative plant, known for its unique leaves, which show a shiny silver coloration with a fluffy texture. This variety of Pilea is appreciated for its round, slightly chalky leaves, which are covered with a fine down, giving them a silky and shiny appearance. It is a compact plant and behaves well in indoor conditions, making it ideal for home decoration.

Care:

  1. Light: Prefers indirect light. The ideal position is at a window that receives filtered or indirect light. Direct sunlight can burn the leaves, while too little light can reduce the shine of the leaves.

  2. Watering: Watering must be moderate. It is important to let the soil dry out slightly between waterings to prevent root rot. Check the first few centimeters of soil with your finger; if they are dry, it is time to water them.

  3. Humidity: This plant benefits from a moderate level of humidity. In very dry environments, occasionally spray the foliage or use a humidifier.

  4. Temperature: It develops best in temperatures between 18 and 24 degrees Celsius. Avoid places with sudden temperature changes.

  5. Fertilization: Fertilize the plant once a month during the period of active growth (spring-summer) with a diluted fertilizer for indoor plants.

  6. Repotting: Repotting is done as needed, usually every 1-2 years, when the plant becomes too big for the current pot. Use a well-drained soil, preferably a mix for indoor plants.

Height with pots included approx. 15 cm

note: the foliage may have defects.
