Botanical Name: Pilea involucrata 'Moon Valley'

Common Name(s): Moon Valley Pilea, Friendship Plant

Pilea Moon Valley is admired for its textured, crinkled leaves that feature deep green and bronze tones, creating a stunning, almost mosaic-like appearance. The leaves are oval and have a distinct, pebbly texture that adds visual interest to any space. This compact plant typically reaches a height of 6-12 inches, making it a charming addition to desks, shelves, or windowsills.

Moon Valley Pilea thrives in bright, indirect light but can adapt to lower light settings, although brighter light will bring out its best colors. It prefers well-draining soil and should be watered when the top inch of soil is dry to the touch. High humidity is ideal for this plant, so occasional misting or placement in a more humid room is recommended to maintain healthy growth.

Air Purifying Qualities:

• Humidity Regulation: Moon Valley Pilea helps regulate indoor humidity by releasing moisture through transpiration, creating a more comfortable environment in dry spaces.
• Oxygen Production: This plant releases oxygen, adding to a fresher, cleaner atmosphere indoors.

Note: Pilea Moon Valley is non-toxic to pets, making it a safe choice for homes with cats or dogs.
