🌿 Pilea peperomioides ‘Mojito’ is a quirky and charismatic houseplant, loved not only for its easy-going nature but also for its distinct, marbled foliage that sets it apart from the classic Chinese Money Plant. Though commonly referred to as the Mojito Pilea, it still belongs to the well-known Pilea peperomioides family, often nicknamed the "Pancake Plant" or "UFO Plant" due to its perfectly round, flat leaves.

🍃 The ‘Mojito’ variety adds a playful twist to the familiar shape, with irregular splashes of creamy white and soft green mottling across each leaf—almost like someone gently stirred a mojito into its genetics. Every leaf is a little different, giving the plant an artistic, unpredictable charm that plant collectors adore.

🌸 When it comes to flowers, this Pilea isn’t particularly showy, but it may surprise you with tiny, delicate pinkish-white blooms on slender stems during the spring or summer months, especially if it’s very happy in its environment. The flowers are subtle and sweet, but truly, the foliage is the main attraction here.

📏 In terms of size, the Pilea ‘Mojito’ typically grows up to 30 cm tall. Its growth habit is upright, with leaves radiating out like a little green solar system, and over time it can become a cheerful, bushy companion.

🧼 This plant is wonderfully low-maintenance. It thrives in bright, indirect light and appreciates being turned occasionally to keep its shape balanced, as it will naturally lean toward the light source. Direct sunlight can bleach the variegated leaves, so a soft, filtered light is best.

💧 Watering is simple: allow the top few centimeters of soil to dry out between waterings. It prefers slightly moist soil but doesn’t like to sit in water. During the colder months, reduce watering frequency, as growth slows down naturally.

⚠️ Note: Toxicity – Pilea peperomioides ‘Mojito’ is non-toxic to both pets and people, which makes it a perfect addition to pet-friendly homes or spaces with small children. Still, it’s always wise to keep all houseplants out of reach of tiny hands and curious paws.

🪴 Format: Upon delivery, the plant has a height of approximately 20 cm (measured including the pot). It is supplied in a nursery pot with a diameter of 13 cm.
