Pilea pubescens 'Silver Tree' is a compact creeping Pilea with small quilted leaves marked by a deep green base and a clear silver stripe through the centre. The low growth habit lets the stems spread into a soft mat, making the plant well suited to terrariums, low planters and close-up foliage displays. Silver markings and the textured leaf surface carry the visual detail on its small leaves. As stems creep, the silver-marked leaves overlap and build a low textured patch.
