Descripción
Esta Pilea crece en una fuente de hojas redondeadas en miniatura que caen en cascada sobre el costado de la maceta; en la naturaleza, forma una alfombra de follaje que se extiende sobre el suelo o los troncos de los árboles para cubrir el espacio con su extensión de diminutas hojas de color gris plateado. En sus bosques nativos, acostumbra a crecer en el suelo, en lugares sombreados; Por lo tanto, como planta de interior, apreciará la luz brillante pero indirecta (¡para que no se queme con el sol!) y un lugar más húmedo, como el lugar donde vive normalmente. Los esquejes de esta planta también funcionarán bien en un terrario tropical, donde agregarán un toque de color a su paisaje en miniatura.

Luz

Lo mejor es la luz brillante e indirecta; Está acostumbrado a estar en el suelo del bosque, por lo que el sol directo puede dañar sus hermosas hojas. Evite los lugares que sean muy oscuros, ya que todavía se necesita mucha luz para realizar la fotosíntesis.

Agua

Mantenga la tierra húmeda y solo permita que se seque la capa superior; Regar el fondo (remojar la planta en agua en una bandeja en lugar de verterla en el suelo) es bueno para esta planta, ya que evita que las hojas se empapen demasiado y se pudran.

Humedad
Esta planta apreciará un ambiente húmedo y se beneficiará de una nebulización frecuente, especialmente si está en una maceta colgante, donde está más expuesta a los movimientos de calor en una habitación. Esté atento a las puntas de las hojas que se oscurecen, lo que significa que la planta está luchando con la baja humedad.

Suelo

Utilice una tierra con buen drenaje, con arena o piedra pómez añadida, para ayudar a evitar que las raíces se empapen demasiado y, al mismo tiempo, mantener la planta húmeda. Trasplante cada tres años a medida que la planta crece.

Alimento
Alimente cada cuatro aguas durante la temporada de crecimiento, reduzca a cada seis en otoño e invierno.

Temperatura
La temperatura media en el hogar es de entre 18 y 24 °C y está bien; asegúrese de que no baje de los 12 °C en invierno.

Apto para mascotas
Sí, ¡pero mordisquear demasiado no será bueno para las mascotas, los humanos pequeños ni para la planta!

Consejos principales para los brotes
Puede propagar esta planta mediante esquejes: tome un esqueje de hojas sanas de 8 cm de largo del final de una enredadera, retire la mitad inferior de las hojas y colóquelas en la tierra. Si ya hay raíces creciendo en las hebras, se propagará aún más rápidamente; ¡Esta también es una excelente manera de colocar esta planta en un terrario!

 

Important Information

If you have any questions, please check out the below or get in touch via our contact form

We're devoted to sending our customers quality plants with the best service around. Every plant is backed by our 7-day guarantee, so they arrive in good health.

Our team takes extra steps when prepping plants for transportation, but they're still sensitive to changes, so there may be minor cosmetic issues. We always aim to photograph and disclose any flaws before shipping, but a living creature travelling across the country in a box can take a hot minute to adjust to its new life.

If you have any issues within 7 days of receiving your order, holler at our customer support team on our contact form with your order details and some pics of the issue. After the guarantee has expired, though, we can't refund as we can't guarantee care and environmental factors. If you repot the plant during the 7 days, the guarantee is void.

We have been sending plants up and down the country for many year now and we like to think we have our way down to an art.

We protect the plant from falling out of the soil with tissue paper and tape if needed, then we wrap the plant in corrugated cardboard, and sometimes we protect the leaves with extra tissue paper if required. This is then placed into a box and if there is any empty space, we fill this with void fill to stop the plants moving around inside the box. Sometimes we will write a note on your packing slip to water the plant on arrival, so please look out for this. This is due a freshly watered plant going in a box will not only be soggy, but as the plant is in darkness this can sometimes make the plant unhappy when just freshly watered.

If your plant arrives to you unhappy, please send us a photo of the plant and packaging if relevant straight away, so we can advise you.

Online orders are packed and dispatched within a few days. Usually depending on volumes, we aim to get your order dispatched within 1 working day. We have collections from Royal Mail 6 days a week so deliveries tend to be speedy.

Our standard parcel delivery service is £4.99 for Royal Mail Tracked48, you can upgrade to Tracked24 for £2.50.

We do offer a Tracked48 Large Letter option for £2.99, and Tracked24 for £1 extra, but this only applies to products less than 2.5cm thick.

*Deliveries 7 days a week only included Tracked24 parcels.

We get a lot of boxes, packaging and whatnot at Sprouts from all our various supplier's deliveries. We re-use this packaging material where possible, plus we take in donations from local businesses and customers to our shop to avoid excess packaging going to landfill. Sometimes your delivery might look a little different, or come in a branded box from another company, but rest assured the items inside are carefully packed with love and attention inside. We use paper tape and all our branded materials included are fully recyclable. Sometimes we use polystyrene, bubble wrap or plastic wrap in the packaging, all these items are not new and where possible, please use them again.

Delicate, worth the effort

Okay so I almost drowned this one after the first two weeks. I have to say though, after some emergency TLC, it seems to have recovered better than I expected. Really pretty, just don’t do what I do - let the soil dry out properly! I’ll probably order a few more in due course as they look so pretty around the house
