90152	Pellionia repens (Syn.: Pellionia daveauana), Watermelon Pellionia		$9.95	Grown for the beauty of its leaves, it makes an ideal basket or terrarium plant.

Can be grown as a ground cover in tropical climates. Native to Southeast Asia. Urticaceae
90344	Pilea pubescens 'Silver Cloud' Silver Cloud Pilea, Silver Panamiga		$9.95	Uncommon house plant with striking silvery leaves, ruffled and serrated, with pinkish color on the undersides. It's an upright compact plant to 10 inches high with inconspicuous flowers. Although it likes terrarium conditions, it might be a bit large for such usage. Ideal in a mixed planting of house plants, such as with silvery or spotted begonias, thus creating a nice contrast. Also, use it in its own hanging basket. Indoors give it bright conditions and humidity and let the soil dry slightly between watering. It does not like waterlogged soil, so do not use too large a pot, smaller is better. Needs part to full shade outdoors in mild climates. Minimum temperature should be 50F, with the ideal range from 65F to 85F. Since cuttings root easily, it's a good idea to periodically replace old plants. Cold air, especially in winter, may cause some leaf drop. Do a bit of judicious pruning in spring to induce new growth. Native to South America. USDA zones 10 - 11. Urticaceae
