Pilea Silver Tree is quite a forgiving specimen with deeply wrinkled, dark green foliage with a silvery streak in the middle. The contrasting combination of dark and light hues adds an eye-catching charm to the plant, making it the first choice of most gardeners.
The plant has an upright growth habit with an average height of 1-1.5 feet—perfect for growing in pots. With mild morning sunlight, you can display this dark beauty in the Northeastern corners of the house.
