Pilea mollis has large deeply textured leaves.The leaves are chocolate brown in the center with a wide margin of lime green. In more shade the leaves have more lime green in them. Leaf undersides are typically dark red.
Tiny pink-green flowers in branched cymes in summer are not particularly showy. This pilea has a really dramatic appearance.
It is perfect for the window sill, mixed container or large terrarium.
