About the plant:
Pilea peperomioides has several names. We can find it as the so-called Missionary plant (because of its historical pilgrimage), chinese money plant or pancake plant – the last two are earned by the specific round shape of its leaves. They resemble pancakes or pennies, so the plant should bring you wealth and happiness.
It is an evergreen semi-succulent plant of the nettle family. It comes from the Chinese province of Yunnan and, as we already mentioned, its history resembles a novel. It was discovered several times and then forgotten until it finally caught on among Nordic growers. It is therefore a plant that was only propagated at an amateur level and was known to botanists only from the 1980s.
