Pilea peperomioides, also known as the Chinese money plant or pancake plant, is native to Yunnan province in southern China. It is a popular houseplant due to its attractive, shiny leaves and ease of care.
It is a relatively low-maintenance plant and can thrive in a range of lighting conditions, from low to bright indirect light. It is a drought-tolerant plant and can withstand periods of neglect, making it a good choice for those who may not have a lot of time to devote to plant care.
Pilea peperomioides can be grown outdoors in warm, humid climates, but is generally grown as a houseplant in other regions.
