Botanical Name: Pilea cadierei
-
Common Names: Aluminum
- Description: Pilea cadierei, commonly called aluminum houseplant, is native to Vietnam. The foliage looks like it has been splashed with aluminum paint, hence the common name. This is an upright, herbaceous perennial that is noted for its textured green and silver foliage. It typically grows in a shrubby clump to 12” tall.
Care:
- Light: Your Pilea will do best in bright but indirect sunlight. Direct sunlight will scorch the leaves. This houseplant can adapt to lower light but the leaves will turn a darker green and the stems will stretch more.
- Pet Friendly: Yes
- Water: Allow the soil to dry in between waterings, as Pilea do not like soggy soil. If the leaves start looking droopy, it is time to water your plant. They will require more water in warmer weather.
- Humidity: Medium
- Temperature: Pilea plants enjoy normal household temperatures of about 65°- 75° F.
- Difficult Level: Medium
