Pilea glaucophylla, also known as Grey Baby Tears, is a delicate trailing plant with tiny round leaves in silvery-blue tones. It forms soft cascades that spill beautifully from shelves or hanging pots, adding gentle texture and movement to your plant displays.

Despite its dainty appearance, it’s a tough little grower that thrives in bright, indirect light and regular moisture.

Plant Care 

Light: Bright indirect light, too much sun, and you risk scorching the leaves. This plant can also tolerate lower light conditions. An east-facing window is ideal.

Watering: Water when the top inch of the soil dries out. Don't let this plant sit in standing water or risk root rot. If possible, it's best to bottom water as this plant has a tendency to trap water at the top and rot. 

Temperature: 16-25°C is ideal. Cold drafts will cause leaf drop for this pretty plant. 

Potting: A well-draining potting mix is suitable for these. Our A Sandy Loam is an excellent choice for this plant.

Hot tips: An easy-to-propagate plant as they grow babies! Great if you want to fill your house with these beauties.
