Pilea peperomioides Marantaceae An old specimen can reachPilea peperomioides Pilea peperomioides carries its round leaves like small discs on long, slender petioles. Each stalk joins the blade close to its centre rather than at the edge, creating the peltate structure from which the veins radiate. The smooth green surface and gently cupped or almost flat profile keep this unusual attachment clearly visible. Leaves are arranged around an upright, initially green stem that thickens and shows pale leaf scars
