How to care for a Money Plant (Pilea Peperomoides)

Watering the Money Plant (Pilea Peperomoides)

The Chinese Money Plant (Pilea Peperomoides) prefers even watering, without its roots constantly standing in water. Water regularly, but ensure the top layer of potting soil dries slightly between waterings. Overwatering often leads to brown spots, so it's best to use a watering can like the Elho 1.5L watering can for controlled water flow. Also, browse our collection of potting soil and accessories to give your plant the right foundation.

Light Pancake Plant (Pilea Peperomoides)

Ideally, place your Pilea in a spot with bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight can burn the thin leaves, while too little light stunts growth and makes branches lanky. A bright east- or west-facing windowsill is ideal. Feel free to combine your Pilea with other shade plants from our selection, such as the Scindipsis Pictus or the Monstera Minima, for a green eye-catcher.

Common problems with the Money Plant (Pilea Peperomoides)

Yellow leaves

Yellow leaves often indicate overwatering or insufficient light. First, check the soil's moisture and adjust your watering. Move your plant to a brighter spot if it's too dark. Read more about root rot in our blog post about what to do about root rot in your houseplants.

Plant dripping

A dripping pancake plant can indicate overwatering or blocked drainage. Ensure excess water can drain properly by using a pot with drainage holes and adding hydroponic clays to the potting mix. Allow the potting mix to dry slightly between waterings to prevent problems.

Plagues

Spider mites and aphids are the most common pests affecting Pileas. Regularly inspect the undersides of leaves and, if an infestation first appears, use natural control with our Jungle Mist Spray. For persistent infestations, you can use sticky traps for fungus gnats or a mild insecticide like Plant Life Support.

Roots emerge from the bottom of the pot

When the roots grow out of the bottom of the pot, it's time to repot. Use a slightly larger pot from our collection of pots for houseplants and fresh potting soil for aroids. This will give your Chinese Money plant room to grow and produce fresh new leaves.

Brown edges on the leaves

Brown edges usually result from overly dry air or insufficient watering. Increase humidity by placing a plant sprayer or moss moss nearby. Regular leaf care with a microfiber dusting mitt keeps the leaves clean and healthy.

Large adult aggressive chewer? No. Puppy? Yes
Pattern Name: Classic Squeaky Tug
My large adult dog who is an aggressive chewer got this toy in pieces within minutes, BUT this is a great toy for a lighter touched dog. When I got my newest addition (Malinois mix puppy. Pls thoughts and prayers for me), this toy came to mind because she loves chewing and she’s only 11 weeks old! She needed an interesting toy that is sturdy and won’t hurt her teeth or gums, but is still interesting (the rope piece and the squeaker). She’s not nearly as rough of a chewer as my older guy YET. But when she gets bigger, she will more than likely destroy this. She is almost 20lbs at 11 weeks right now, so I will update if she does destroy it. Long story short: Not good for large aggressive chewers, good for aggressive chewers on the smaller side (maybe 15-30lbs)

Pattern Name: Classic Squeaky Tug
Love, LOVE, LOOOVVVEEE this toy!! Finally, an actual indestructable toy for my super chewer!! As others have said, the little rope thing came off in less than an hour, LOL. But the 'Corn cob' is great!! My baby LOVES this thing and chews on it constantly and it shows no sign of wear!! I am optmistic that it will actually last more than a month.
