Pilea involucrata 'Dark Mystery' Is an unnamed species from Ecuador. This species is thought to be Pilea hitchcockii. The deep green (almost black) leaves are long and narrow with a center stripe of metallic silver running the full length. The new growth glows a warm rose color. I find it reminds me of a serpents belly. A great plant for a window or in a terrarium
Care of Pilea involucrata 'Dark Mystery': Shade to part shade, temp. 40 to 95 degrees, 6 to 8 in. tall. Allow to get slightly drying between waterings.
