Details

The Chinese money plant (also known as the pancake plant, friendship plant, coin plant, or UFO plant) is adored for its unique appearance. The round, coin-sized leaves are thick and glossy. Each leaf is attached to the crown of the plant by a petiole (leaf stem) that connects directly to the leaf underside, giving it a very unique appearance.

Light: The Pilea peperomioides thrives in medium to bright indirect light. Rotate your plant regularly to keep it looking symmetrical. Avoid locations that receive harsh, direct light as it will burn the delicate leaves.

Water: Allow the plant to nearly dry out between waterings and then water well. The leaves of a Pilea peperomioides will begin to droop when it dries out, which is a good indication that it’s time for watering.

Non-Toxic

Pot size: 13cm

Brilliant service, plus took lots of care packaging up my plant so it arrived safely! Will definitely be back :)

This is my 2nd rescue plants and you don't let me down. I follow you at your displays and wish I lived closer but I would need a bigger house! I cannot fault your customer service, made to feel individual and get prompt service, attention and great packaging. Would recommend to everyone as they do ship across the UK and the plants are brilliant!

Steve and Lewis provide expertise advice and excellent customer care.  I ordered a beautiful plant for a friend's 50th. They packaged it professionally and beautifully which my friend commented on when she received it by post in pristine condition.  It was a lovely surprise for her! I highly recommend this company for all your plant requirements! Thanks guys!

Steve and Lewis are so incredibly helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. I always leave with a smile on my face and a bag full of really high quality plants and plant related paraphernalia. They only stock the best products, and both shops are 100% good vibes. I’d never shop for my houseplant needs anywhere else. Thank you both!!

Just picked up my rescue box and had a great chat with Steve about plant care. Having just moved house he gave me great comfort about my plants which are not looking great right now. I always love popping into Urban Tropicana as who ever is there helps me learn more about plants and is always up for a chat about the plants at home.
Thanks again and I know I will see you again soon.
