Discover how easy it is to grow your own Chinese Money Plant with the comprehensive care tips from De Plantrekkers.

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.

Criterio y gustos propios!
Size: 9, Color: Cognac
Los botines están bien! Solo que para mí gusto deberían tener un poco más de grosor en la suela, necesitan un poco más de confort. Por eso decidí regresarlos. Para ser botines requieren un tacón un poco más alto. Gracias!

Nice Fit
Color: Black, White, Light Gray, Size: 3X-Large
I picked this up looking for something simple but clean, and it delivered. The fit is comfortable, the material feels solid, and it looks good without needing much effort. It’s one of those pieces you can throw on and still look put together.

Good value, soft and comfortable
Color: Black, Army Green, Light Gray, Size: 4X-Large, Color: Black, Army Green, Light Gray, Size: 4X-Large
Initial thoughts are very positive with this 3 pack shirt set. The green is similar to an OD military green and the black and gray are standard color shades. Material is soft and sizes are true to size. The mock turtleneck isn’t too tight but may still be a little annoying to some people. I do question the amount of spandex in these shirts. Tag says 5% but these shirts are extremely stretchy and feels like a higher spandex content. It’s also a little tough to figure out which way is the front of the shirt. Visually rhe front does have a lower collar line than the back but would still be nice to have a brand tag printed in the back of the shirt for quicker identification. Overall for roughly $12 a shirt these are a good choice for everyday wear. I will update rating if these shirts fail to meet expectations after further use.
