Question

...G_20110331_112336.j
I would appreciate it if you could tell me anything about this plant.  My husband got a cutting of this from a customer of his who also had no clue of its name.  


                                                       Thanks!

Answer
Hi Jana,

Your mystery plant is a cultivar of Pilea 'Moon Valley.'

It does best in strong, but indirect sunlight. It will lose its rich colors if it does not get enough light. Keep it in a small pot and water it when the surface of the soil is dry. You can take stem cuttings to make more plants. Fertilize very sparingly.

Please let me know if any of this is unclear or if you have any additional questions.
