The Chinese Money Plant, known as Pilea peperomioides, is one of the most beloved houseplants in the world, admired for its coin-shaped leaves, minimalist look, and ease of care. Often seen gracing modern interiors and Instagram feeds, this quirky plant brings a charming architectural quality to any space.  

Traditionally, the Chinese Money Plant is believed to bring prosperity, good fortune, and financial abundance, which is why it’s often given as a gift. This plant goes by many names, including the UFO Plant, Pancake Plant, Missionary Plant, and simply the Money Plant (not to be confused with Crassula ovata or Epipremnum aureum).  

According to feng shui, the Chinese Money Plant is more than just a decorative addition, it's considered a symbol of prosperity and good luck.

The round, shiny leaves resemble coins, making it a go-to plant for those hoping to attract wealth and positive energy into their homes or offices.

To bring prosperity and good luck into your life, feng shui practice suggests placing the plant in the southeast corner of your living space, which is associated with wealth and abundance.

It’s also popular to give the plant as a gift, especially when it has produced “pups” or offsets, which are thought to spread fortune when shared. 

The plant grows in a mounded shape and stays compact, typically reaching a mature size of about 12 inches tall and 12 inches wide.

It can grow to double its size in a year with proper lighting. Its symmetry and upright growth habit make it perfect for shelves, desks, or as a tabletop focal point. 

Native to the mountainous regions of Yunnan Province in southern China, the Chinese money plant is defined by its shiny, round, flat leaves perched above long, slender stems that radiate from a central point. 

The Chinese Money Plant can produce tiny, pale-pink to white flowers on thin stalks in ideal indoor conditions, usually during spring. However, blooming is rare and not its main feature. What makes this plant especially unique is its tendency to produce numerous offsets or “pups” at the base and even along its roots, which can be gently removed and propagated with ease. 

The full-grown Chinese Money Plant is popular for its easy-care nature, unique round leaves, and air-purifying qualities, making it a great decorative houseplant for modern interiors. Its upright, architectural look adds charm to tabletops, shelves, or hanging planters. 

When and How to Water Your Chinese Money Plant 

The Chinese Money Plant is mildly drought-tolerant and does not like sitting in wet soil, which can quickly lead to root rot. During average conditions, let the top 1–2 inches of soil dry out between waterings. If you’re unsure, it’s safer to wait a day or two longer than to water too soon.

The plant can tolerate short dry spells better than overwatering. Water your Chinese Money Plant every 7–10 days during its growing season (March to September) using about 1/4 to 1/2 cup of water and reduce watering to every 14–21 days during dormancy (October to February). 

From March to September, during its growing season, water the plant every 7–10 days with about 1/4 to 1/2 cup of water, depending on pot size and indoor climate. You’ll notice it grows faster and pushes out new leaves during this time, so more frequent watering is appropriate. Make sure to use a pot with good drainage and empty any saucers to prevent soggy soil. 

From October to February, in its dormant season, reduce watering to every 14–21 days using around 1/4 cup, only when the soil feels completely dry. Growth will slow down or stop, and watering too much during this period increases the risk of root rot. Place it in a slightly cooler location during dormancy, if possible, to help mimic natural seasonal changes. 

Light Requirements – Where to Place Your Chinese Money Plant 

When growing indoors, place your Chinese Money Plant near a bright east or north-facing window with indirect light for 6–8 hours daily.

Chinese Money Plant thrives in bright, indirect indoor light and grows best near east- or north-facing windows.

Avoid intense, direct midday sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.

If you only have south- or west-facing windows, place it a few feet back or use a sheer curtain. Under low-light conditions, it may become leggy, producing fewer and smaller leaves.

When growing outdoors, give your plant filtered morning sun and bright shade in the afternoon, ideally 3–4 hours of gentle light daily. It can be placed on a shaded patio or balcony during warm months; but must be brought indoors before temperatures drop.

Avoid direct sun exposure during summer afternoons, which can burn the delicate foliage. 

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

The Chinese Money Plant prefers a well-drained, airy, slightly acidic to neutral soil (pH 6.0–7.0), and should be fertilized once a year. A quality indoor potting mix amended with perlite or pumice ensures proper drainage. Planet Desert specializes in succulents and has Go to cactus mix blend 1 gal 4 qt cacti succulent dirt compost growing media that includes an organic substrate with mycorrhizae to help with the growth of a healthy root system, to help your succulents thrive. Avoid compacted or moisture-retentive soils, as they increase the risk of rot.  

Fertilize your plant once a year in spring using a diluted balanced liquid NPK fertilizer of about 5-10-5. Too much feeding can lead to salt buildup or leggy growth. No fertilizer is needed during the dormant season (October to February), as the plant slows its growth and won’t benefit from added nutrients. Flush the soil occasionally with plain water to remove any accumulated salts. 

Pro Tip: It’s perfectly natural for your Chinese Money Plant to shed an occasional older leaf as it focuses energy on fresh growth. But if you notice multiple leaves dropping at once, overwatering and potential root rot are often to blame. Act quickly by checking the soil and root-adjust watering to help your plant bounce back.

Chinese Money Plant Indoor Requirements 

The best place to grow a Chinese Money Plant indoors is near an east- or north-facing window where it can receive bright, indirect light throughout the day. Avoid placing it directly in harsh afternoon sun, which may scorch its delicate, round leaves. When grown indoors, the Chinese Money Plant thrives in temperatures between 60–75°F, with moderate humidity levels of 40% to 60%. It does well in typical household conditions but appreciates extra humidity, which you can provide with a pebble tray or by grouping it with other plants. Always position it away from cold drafts, air conditioners, and direct heat sources like radiators to prevent stress. 

Hardiness Zones & More 

In all other U.S. states, where winter temperatures dip below this threshold, it is best grown indoors or kept as a seasonal outdoor plant during warm months. 

If you choose to place it outside during summer, be sure to bring it back indoors by late September or early October to protect it from cold damage. 

The Pilea peperomioides can only be grown outdoors year-round in Hawaii, where USDA Zones 10–11 provide the consistently warm, frost-free climate it needs.

In these tropical conditions, the plant enjoys filtered sunlight, mild humidity, and temperatures that stay safely above 50°F.  

Wildlife – Pilea peperomioides Flowers Attract the Following Friendly Pollinators 

When in bloom, Pilea peperomioides may draw a few tiny flies or gnats, but it is not a plant that is known to draw bees, hummingbirds, or butterflies. This plant is more decorative than wildlife-supportive, but its tiny pale flowers can sometimes catch the attention of small insects. However, it’s not a nectar-rich plant and shouldn’t be relied upon to attract pollinators like salvia or milkweed.

According to the ASPCA, Pilea peperomioides is non-toxic to dogs, cats, and horses. This makes it a pet-friendly houseplant option and a great choice for families. Even if ingested, it rarely causes more than mild stomach upset. Still, always supervise pets around houseplants to discourage chewing. 

How to Propagate Your Chinese Money Plant  

Pilea peperomioides is easily propagated from baby plantlets, which grow from the base or roots of mature plants. When a healthy plant matures, it produces offsets (also called pups) that can be removed and replanted. Wait until the baby plant is 2–3 inches tall, then gently dig around the base and snip it from the parent with a clean knife or scissors.

Ensure the pup has some roots for faster establishment. Plant the offset in a small pot with moist, well-draining soil. Keep it in bright, indirect light and water lightly. Within a few weeks, it should root and begin growing independently. You can also try propagating leaf cuttings in water, but this method is slower and less reliable. 

Potting and Repotting Chinese Money Plant 

Chinese Money Plant prefers a small to medium-sized pot with excellent drainage, and it typically needs repotting once every 1–2 years as it outgrows its container. When potting or repotting, choose a container that has drainage holes and use a light, well-draining soil mix, such as a blend designed for indoor plants or a succulent mix with added perlite or coconut coir. Repotting is best done in spring, just before or as the plant enters its active growing season.

If you notice roots circling the bottom or poking through the drainage holes, or if water drains too quickly, it’s a sign your Pilea has outgrown its current pot. While repotting, it's a great opportunity to separate and propagate any baby offsets (“pups”) growing around the base. After repotting, water the plant lightly and place it in indirect light to help it adjust to its new environment without stress.

The perspective of Darth Vader between Star Wars and Empire Strikes Back.
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
So basically this tells the story of what is going on with Darth Vader after the first Death Star is blown up. He wants to know who it was. Emperor Palpatine is pretty ticked off as it is, and he hasn't said anything but he's already looking to replace Vader in case he fails. Along the way we see still that Vader has some decency still left inside of him, as we meet Doctor Aphra and her droids, and he has a chance to kill her off several times but spares her life for certain reasons. This book collects Star Wars: Darth Vader (2015 Marvel) #1-12, #1 Director's Cut, and Star Wars: Darth Vader (2015 Marvel) Annual #1. The story is written by Kieron Gillen. Art by Salvador Larroca and Leinil Francis Yu

Source material for Nolan's trilogy is powerful writing and art...
Format: Paperback
The Long Halloween is great, but I actually had more fun reading through Dark Victory. It's a crime mystery that consistently had me guessing through to the conclusion about who The Hangman's true identity was. What I really loved most was the evolution of the characters' personalities--from Jim Gordon to Harvey Dent to Bruce (who really is more in his iconic "Batman" persona here)--that began in Batman: Year One to Batman: The Long Halloween and into Batman: Dark Victory. It really does work like a trilogy. It's also notable to include Gotham city's underworld itself as a character of its own. Batman begins (pardon the pun) in Year One with a quest to sort of rid the city of the mafia, which is and has been the main criminal body up until this point. In The Long Halloween, the mafia begins to lose power because of the rise of the Batman's presence. During that time, some of the most insane and dangerous criminals escape Arkham Asylum and begin quietly terrorizing the city anew, spreading like a virus. Slowly, the "freaks"--as the mafia calls them--start to gain more and more power by simply being a more unorganized crime source (as opposed to organized crime). Characters like Pamela Isley, Solomon Grundy, Mr. Freeze, the Penguin, Scarecrow, the Joker, and others, establish and strengthen their grips on Gotham's criminal underworld. It's nice that these villains--these "freaks"--also aren't the main conflict in Dark Victory (or The Long Halloween or Year One, for that matter); they appear when it is effective for them to appear, slowly taking more prominence in the setting of the story as it progresses. The main conflict has to deal with the solving of the mysteries behind The Hangman killings. The Long Halloween and Dark Victory are, primarily, crime mysteries, which is what makes them interesting. What makes them great literature, however, is the creative team that is Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale. Loeb's writing is really well-crafted here: the entire arc unfolds at a consistent pace and he balances out dialogue with Batman's internal narration very smoothly. And, as I mentioned previously, personality and narrative arcs of the main characters (Gordon, Batman, and Dent) have fully matured by this point in the trilogy, leaving the supporting characters a chance to evolve and come into their own. Much of these progressions are not just depicted by the writing, however; Tim Sale (who worked previously with Loeb on The Long Halloween) elevates and perfects his artwork in this story. There's not a change in the look of the characters, so you know it's definitely his style, but you sense immediately (especially if reading Dark Victory right after finishing The Long Halloween) the new level of attention paid to composition of the drawings. Shadows and silhouettes, contrasts between setting and characters, everything adds to the mood and atmosphere of the characters and the scenes they're a part of. In terms of the print itself, the paperback is excellent. This and The Long Halloween have really nice paper, which I'll catch myself sometimes randomly sniffing in the middle of a read to enjoy the new paper smell. The ink is really crisp, the colors pop, and the design of the book itself is laid out very clearly. There aren't page numbers or a contents page, but every issue is separated by chapter pages that include gorgeous, high-contrast artwork to help distinguish which issue you're on. Additionally, the print comes with an introduction by David S. Goyer, who co-wrote the Nolan film trilogy. Overall, I can't stress enough how gorgeous this trade paperback is and how excellent and top-tier this story arc is. I really enjoyed it just as much, if not more so, then The Long Halloween. No other Batman story arc has topped my enjoyment of this particular trilogy. Highly recommended in addition to Batman: Year One and Batman: The Long Halloween.

One of the best Bat stories that I've read.
Format: Paperback
Coming off from The Long Halloween, Jeff Loeb and Tim Sale give us the sequel to their popular story tale in which we see Batman go at it with another year long mystery, while also giving us an origin story for the first Robin, Dick Grayson. After reading this book, I have come away having with even more love of the Dark Knight's mythology, while coming to see this as my favorite Batman story that I have read, even if it doesn't stand as well on its own. ON the narrative side of things, Loeb delivers a story fairly similar to the one he gave in The Long Halloween, though I feel this one is a bit more polished than Halloween was. Some have said that the retreading of plot structure have limited the way Loeb's later works are read, but I myself have no problem with it (for the most part), Loeb manages to do enough differently that you don't feel like you're reading the exact same story. The real big negative I'd have to give this graphic novel is that it really doesn't stand as well by itself than if you had read The Long Halloween. While I myself read that story before coming in to this one, I did see many connections that I would assume would through off any newcomers who hadn't read the prior story. But I will say that this is the story that had me invested the most emotionally. Without giving away any spoilers, that last page in the novel gave me such a cathartic experience that I really came to appreciate certain aspects of the Dark Knight's mythology, and how themes of loneliness were touched upon in a very genuine way. Looking at the art for the novel, Sale's work has improved much from The Long Halloween. I always mention in reviews concerning Sale that I was originally not a fan of his art, but after going through his work, you can't help but admire the level skill he manages to put in his drawings. There is a very big noir feeling in this novel (a plus for ) that is just delivered so well that any preferences in art I may have against Sale are put away in admiring the way he plays with lighting in the story. My biggest complaint for the art, which is a more of a personal thing really, is that I do not like the "pixie" costume they gave Robin (which is his default costume that many would associate him with). I have never really liked this costume, probably never will, but again, this is just me. Overall, I would say I really enjoyed the novel and would have to recommend it to any fans of the Batman (although I'd make sure you have read The Long Halloween first). This has come to be one of my most favorited Batman stories I've read, and I hope others will receive the same level of satisfaction that I have.
