Coin Plant / Chinese Money Plant (Pilea peperomioides) is an Asiatic perennial herb that is native to Yunnan Province in Southern China at the foot of the Himalayas. Pileas are a part of the stinging-nettle family, Urticaceae. Plants in this family usually have stinging hairs filled with irritating histamines.

Sun: Direct & Indirect

They love direct suns, but they'll also do well in medium to bright indirect lights.

Light: Medium

They do not need to see the sun directly. But filtered sunlight through glass is fine. The best spot for them is where they do not see the sun during the majority of the day, like somewhere shady outside or inside behind a window.

Water: Every 2 weeks

They like the soil to be completely dry before the next watering. That usually takes about two weeks in an average home environment. It may vary depends on your environment and light condition, but for them, it's always safer to underwater or water when you see signs of lack of water like floppy, droop, or soft leaves.

Humidity: Medium

They like a little bit of humidity, give them a mist every 2 - 3 days.

Care Tips

Increase humidity if leaf edges crisp. Provide more light if see white dots on leaf.
