--

Pilea microphylla, commonly called artillery plant, is native from Mexico to Brazil. It is a short-lived perennial or annual that typically grows from 8-12” tall. In its native habitat, it may spread to as much as 24” wide and is sometimes massed as a ground cover. Abundant, tiny, obovate to rounded, succulent, light green leaves (1/4” to 1/2” long) appear on this small shrubby plant, giving it an almost fern-like appearance. Tiny greenish flowers are not particularly showy. Male flowers explosively discharge pollen into the air, hence the common name of artillery plant. Indoor plants rarely flower and fruit.


Planting & Caring -

Easily grow indoors in a warm, humid environment in bright indirect light. Some morning sun is acceptable but avoid the full afternoon sun. Use a peaty soil-based potting mix. Plants like high humidity and appreciate humidified rooms or placement on a bed of wet pebbles. Water moderately in the growing season, and reduce watering in fall to late winter.
