{"product_id":"pilea-peperomioides-chinese-money-1","title":"Pilea Peperomioides 'Chinese Money'","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Chinese Money Plant arrived in the West via a Norwegian missionary who brought cuttings back from China in the 1940s, and for decades it circulated only as cuttings shared between friends — it was nearly impossible to buy. That history of being passed hand to hand gives it an unusual warmth for a houseplant. Now that it's widely available, it's easy to forget how coveted it once was.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePilea peperomioides is immediately recognizable: perfectly round, pancake-flat leaves on long, slender stems that radiate outward from a central point. It has a clean, graphic quality that reads beautifully in modern and minimal spaces. As the plant matures, it produces offshoots — little plantlets that push up from the soil and can be potted on or shared, continuing that original tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a plant with a story, a look, and a habit of making friends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy You'll Love It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Pilea is one of those plants that works everywhere — on a desk, a windowsill, a bookshelf, a bathroom counter. Its compact size and upright habit make it easy to place, and the circular leaves catch and reflect light in a way that feels almost playful. It's also one of the most shareable plants around: once it starts producing pups, you'll have more to give away than you know what to do with.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCare at a Glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bright indirect light preferred.

When pups appear at the base, let them grow to a few inches tall before separating them with a clean cut just below the soil line. They root easily in water or well-draining potting mix.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor more care tips, visit our \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/house-plant-resource-the-worlds-wiki-for-indoor-tropical-foliage-plants\"\u003ePlant Care Library\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"House Plant Dropship","offers":[{"title":"3\" Pot \/ Nursery Pot","offer_id":53435505115320,"sku":"3_PILEA_PEPEROMIODES","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"4\" Pot \/ Nursery Pot","offer_id":53435505148088,"sku":"4_PILEA_PEPEROMIODES","price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4\" Pot \/ Black Cylinder","offer_id":53435505180856,"sku":"4_PILEA_CH.MONEY_PP.BLK.CYL","price":92.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"6\" Pot \/ Nursery Pot","offer_id":53435505213624,"sku":"6_PILEA_PEPEROMIODES","price":80.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4\" Pot \/ Terra Cotta Eco","offer_id":53435505246392,"sku":"4_PILEA_PEPEROMIOIDES_CHINESE_MONEY_POT_ECO.TERRACOTTA","price":52.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4\" Pot \/ Black Eco Pot","offer_id":53435505279160,"sku":"4_PILEA_PEPEROMIOIDES_CHINESE_MONEY_POT_ECO.BLACK","price":52.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4\" Pot \/ Cow Pot","offer_id":53435505311928,"sku":"4_PILEA_PEPEROMIOIDES_CHINESE_MONEY_POT_COW","price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6\" Pot \/ Terra Cotta Eco","offer_id":53435505344696,"sku":"6_PILEA_PEPEROMIOIDES_CHINESE_MONEY_POT_ECO.TERRACOTTA","price":104.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6\" Pot \/ Black Eco Pot","offer_id":53435505377464,"sku":"6_PILEA_PEPEROMIOIDES_CHINESE_MONEY_POT_ECO.BLACK","price":104.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6\" Pot \/ Cow Pot","offer_id":53435505410232,"sku":"6_PILEA_PEPEROMIOIDES_CHINESE_MONEY_POT_COW","price":84.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0537\/2864\/1208\/files\/image_png491705038-removebg.png?v=1777919450","url":"https:\/\/ouiverte.com\/products\/pilea-peperomioides-chinese-money-1","provider":"Oui Verte","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
