For good development
of Pilea certain conditions
are necessary.

 Detailed conditions:

 Lighting:

 Pilea prefers bright diffused light. Eastern or western windows are ideal. Avoid direct sunlight, especially in summer, as it can burn the leaves.

 Temperature:

 The optimal temperature for Pilea in summer is 18-25 ° C, in winter it can be lowered a little, but not below 12 ° C, with the exception of Pilea Cadieris, which can tolerate temperatures up to 10 ° C.

 Humidity:

 Pileas love high air humidity. Spraying is not recommended, as this can lead to rotting of the leaves. You can use a humidifier or place the pot on a tray with wet expanded clay.

 Watering:

 In spring and summer, water generously as the top layer of soil dries out. Reduce watering in winter. Use soft, settled water.

 Soil:

 Pilea prefers well-drained soil with a neutral or slightly acidic reaction (pH 6-7).

 Fertilizing:

 During the period of active growth (spring-summer), feed the plant every 2 weeks, in autumn and winter - once a month, using fertilizer for decorative foliage plants.

 Transplanting:

 Replant the Pilea annually in spring or early summer.

 Reproduction:

 Pilea is easily propagated by cuttings, which can be rooted in water or in moist soil.
