The Ufo plant is considered undemanding and easy to care for. However, care must be taken to select the right location. Here you can read under which conditions your Pilea is best kept.
The UFO plant likes it bright but not sunny
Site claims of the Pilea
The light-hungry Pilea feels comfortable under the following conditions:
- bright
- normal room temperature
- at best a little below 20°C
No direct sun
Light yes, but please not in the blazing sun. Otherwise the handsome leaves of your Pilea will burn.
tips
The Pilea always grows towards the sun. Therefore, you should turn the bucket regularly so that the growth habit remains even.
The shade? D rather not!
The UFO plant does not feel well in a too dark location and shows its discomfort by shedding its beautiful leaves. Even a slight lack of light leads to fading of the lush green. There is also a risk that the irrigation water in the pot will not evaporate quickly enough and will cause root rot.
