Common Names in South Africa: Chinese Money Plant, Pancake Plant, UFO Plant, Missionary Plant
Overview: Native to China, the Chinese Money Plant is a charming houseplant with round, coin-like, glossy green leaves on slender stems, symbolizing prosperity. Perfect for 16.5cm pots in South African homes, it thrives in bright, indirect light, adding a playful, modern vibe to shelves or tabletops.
Quirky Fact: Its wobbly, pancake-shaped leaves look like little UFOs ready to launch good luck your way!
Care for Damaged Leaves: Snip off damaged or yellow leaves with clean scissors to promote new growth. With well-draining soil (e.g., cactus mix), moderate watering, and proper light, recovery typically takes 24 weeks.
Safety Note: Non-toxic to pets and humans, making it a safe, family-friendly choice for plant lovers.
Availability: Available in 16.5cm pots at nurseries like Plantify.co.za, I-go-eco.co.za, or Agrimark.co.za, with couriered delivery options.
