The 'Norfolk' variety bears unique, textured dense foliage. We love its new leaves which emerge lightly colored red-pink then turn metallic green when mature. In order to promote its bright coloring, the pilea appreciates being in a bright room. However, avoid direct sunlight which risks damaging its leaves.
