Plant Growing Tips

Where to Grow

Pilea 'Sprinkles' thrives in bright, indirect light but can also tolerate moderate light conditions. This makes it suitable for indoor environments with filtered light or partially shaded outdoor areas.

Climate

This plant prefers warm and humid conditions, similar to tropical regions. It grows best in temperatures ranging from 18°C to 25°C. Avoid exposing it to temperatures below 10°C or sudden cold drafts.

Soil Type

Plant Pilea 'Sprinkles' in well-draining soil. A mix of standard indoor potting soil with added perlite or sand will provide the necessary drainage while retaining enough moisture for healthy growth.

Fertilizer

Feed the plant with a balanced, water-soluble fertiliser every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce fertilising in the autumn and winter when the plant's growth slows down.
