My Pilea has been rather spindly. Is it not getting enough light? I have to make sure I rotate it so it doesn’t keep leaning towards the window. *UPDATED TO CORRECT PLANT* thank you all!

    Correct. It is reaching to the light and growing leggy because it wants more light. Grow lights on Amazon these days are great! So many stylish easy options.

    Lots of people think this plant wants indirect light/part shade but I have mine right in front of my east-facing window and it’s the biggest pilea I’ve ever seen. The leaves are the size of my fist. I also never rotate it so the stems don’t get distressed. I just turned it around to take this picture. I believe you may also have misidentified this plant. It’s a raindrop peperomia, not a pilea. You can tell by the shape of the leaves.

      Here’s the other side full of pups. This is a 14” pot.

    Hi, I think your plant is a raindrop peperomia (polybotrya) and not a pilea. You’ll be able to get better care tips from the app with the reclassification. 😊
