Meet my dear Pilea 'Crinkle', a perennial that grows like a weed or groundcover outdoors. This ornamental plant has green, spade-like leaves with a ridged feel and scalloped edges. Now, let me tell you how to take care of this little one.
Lighting: Pilea 'Crinkle' loves bright, indirect light. Don't put it in direct sunlight, or it might get scorched.
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, but not waterlogged. It's like me, I like a good cup of tea, but I don't want to be drowning in it!
Humidity: This plant thrives in humid environments. You can even put it in your bathroom, and it'll love the steam from your showers.
Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix, and avoid getting waterlogged soil. It's like my garden, I want it to be cozy, but not soggy.
Fertilizer: Feed it with a balanced fertilizer during the growing season. Don't overfertilize, or it'll be like giving me too much sugar in my tea - not good!
Temperature: Keep it between 65-75°F (18-24°C). No extreme temperatures, please. It's like my living room, cozy and comfortable.
