Pilea Depressa, also commonly known as "Baby Tears", is a low-growing, creeping plant that is native to South and Central America. It is a member of the Urticaceae family and is often grown as a houseplant due to its delicate appearance and ease of care.
 
The plant has small, round, bright green leaves that are about 1-2 cm (0.4-0.8 inches) in diameter. The leaves are closely spaced together, giving the plant a dense, lush appearance. The stems are thin and fragile, and the plant will trail and cascade as it grows.
 
Pilea Depressa prefers bright, indirect light and should be kept away from direct sunlight. It also requires consistently moist soil, but it is important not to overwater, as this can lead to root rot. It is best to water the plant when the top layer of soil feels dry to the touch.
 
This plant is often used in terrariums, hanging baskets, or as a groundcover in larger planters. It is a great choice for adding a touch of greenery to a room, and its delicate appearance makes it a popular choice for small spaces. It is also known for its air-purifying properties, making it a great addition to any indoor environment.
 
Overall, Pilea Depressa Baby Tears is a charming and easy-to-care-for plant that can bring a sense of tranquility and freshness to any indoor space.
