Pilea glauca ‘Aquamarine’ is a low-growing tropical perennial that is native to the rainforests of central and South America. Where it is endemic it grows as creeping a groundcover. At home, it is ideal for terrariums and hanging baskets.
Pilea needs to be watered differently during different times of the year. During spring and summer, the top quarter inch of the soil should be kept moist.
Pilea glauca 'Aquamarine' prefers medium to bright indirect light. Avoid direct sun. Light from an east or north-facing window is ideal.
These plants prefer airy, well-drained soil that retains moisture well. A high quality, all-purpose potting mix would work great.
