Curated Indoor Plants — Designed to Pair Beautifully with H Potter

Chinese Money Plant (Pilea peperomioides) is the definition of modern, effortless style—round “lily pad” leaves that float on slender stems and gently bob with the air in your home. Look closely and you’ll spot the signature pale dot near the top of each leaf where the stem connects—one of the details plant lovers adore.

What to expect: Leaves naturally face toward the light. Rotate your plant occasionally for an even, symmetrical shape.
Why trust H Potter: For nearly 30 years, we’ve built pieces meant to live in real conditions. As we expand into plants, we’re applying the same standard—practical care guidance, careful packing, and styling that feels finished.

Care Guide

Light Bright, indirect light

Place near a bright window with filtered light. Rotate occasionally so growth stays balanced and symmetrical.

Water Let the top dry slightly

Water thoroughly, then allow excess to drain. Wait until the top portion of soil dries slightly before watering again.

Growth Expect “pups” over time

Many Pileas produce small offshoots. You can leave them for a fuller plant or separate them later once established.

Simple success rule: Bright light + a drying cycle between waterings = the happiest, best-shaped plant.
48-Hour Arrival & Unboxing

Live plants can look a little travel-worn after shipping. A quick reset helps them acclimate and settle in fast.

When What to Do Why It Helps
Immediately Unbox promptly and remove packing materials gently around stems. Prevents leaf/stem stress and allows airflow.
First 2–6 hours Place in bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sun day one. Reduces stress during acclimation.
First 24 hours Check soil moisture before watering. Avoids overwatering right after transit.
Within 48 hours Water only if top soil feels dry; let it drain fully. Supports recovery without waterlogging roots.
What’s normal after shipping: Slight droop or leaf tilt toward light. Give it stable light and time to adjust.

Shipping & Live Plant Handling

Live plants are packed with care and ship on a schedule designed to protect plant health in transit. Here’s what our packing process looks like—from soil protection to final presentation—so your plant arrives clean, stable, and ready to enjoy.

Our Packing & Shipping Process
STEP 1

We use wood fiber to cover our soil to help prevent soil spillage.

STEP 2

The wood fiber is placed over the soil, right under the foliage.

STEP 3

We then use a plastic bag to cover the planter and wood fiber portion of the plant.

STEP 4

Next we secure it tightly with a zip-tie.

STEP 5

We place the houseplant in a paper bag and secure it with a rubber band.

STEP 6

The paper bag acts as the final cover and is also a nice presentation.

  • Shipping regions: We ship within the lower 48 United States
  • Weather considerations: Shipments may be delayed when the team determines conditions are too cold for plants to arrive safely
  • Delivery timing: Tracking will be provided so you can track your package while it travels
  • Live arrival policy: If a plant does not have a safe arrival please text images to 208-640-4206 along with your name and order number

FAQs

Why is it called a Friendship Plant?

Pileas often produce offsets (“pups”) that can be shared and propagated—one reason it’s commonly called a friendship plant.

What light is best for Chinese Money Plant?

Bright, indirect light is ideal. Rotate the plant occasionally to keep growth even and symmetrical.

How often should I water it?

Water when the top portion of soil dries slightly, then let excess drain. Avoid keeping the soil constantly wet.

Do the leaves really “move”?

Yes—leaves can gently bob and reorient toward light sources, which is part of the plant’s charm.

Is the plant exactly the same as the photos?

Live plants vary naturally. Leaf size, spacing, and overall shape can differ—each plant is unique.

Is it safe around pets?

If you have pets or small children, we recommend placing plants out of reach. For pet-specific guidance, consult a veterinary resource for your household.

My daughter's lab kills any toy he gets. This was perfect! We accidentally left it in his kennel while out one day and it was still in perfect condition. Totally worth the money if you dog is a tyrant with toys!!

SAVE YOUR MONEY, THESE ARE UTTER GARBAGE UNLESS YOUR DOG HAS NO TEETH (MAYBE)!!
Size: Large, Product Packaging: Standard Packaging, Size: Large, Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
For all those purchasers who are posting videos of these toys while talking about how great they are and how long they have lasted at your house, would you mind disclosing the breed and age of your dog(s) that play with them? I only ask because I am finding these "positive" reviews REALLY hard to believe now that I have firsthand knowledge that, as a chew toy, this thing completely sucks. Based upon personal experience and the physical and photographic evidence, your dog might be an OBSESSIVE chewer, but they are most assuredly NOT a "power" chewer. If they were, you would almost certainly be posting reviews saying that this toy is utter crap, just like I'm having to do now. After many years of experience using Kong brand toys, the idea that this toy is the "most durable" Kong toy is just ridiculous, and blatant false advertising in my opinion. It took three of my dogs (a 5 year-old Boxer/Pit Bull mix (2nd pic) I'm fostering and two one year old border collie puppies) all of five minutes to completely shred FOUR of these toys straight out of the delivery box. I was the proud owner of four of these things for all of five frickin' minutes out of the box. Meanwhile, it previously took the Boxer/Pit almost two years to destroy two medium-sized Kong "snowman" shaped toys, and even then he wasn't able to shred them anywhere near to this degree. And believe me, he actually *IS* a true "power" chewer, as after raising and training dogs for over 50 years, I have never seen a dog completely break that type of Kong chew toy. As an aside, Kong (the company) appears to take crappy product claims only by means of printed hard copy sent via the U.S mail, so no immediate relief for your wasted expenditure on their products will soon be forthcoming. How many modern companies do you know of that don't allow some sort of online contact for product claims, even if it's just an email address? So I might very well have to reconsider whose products I am willing to spend my all-too hard earned money on. That said, those three dogs are all now outside throwing up chunks of these crappy toys that they swallowed while tearing them to pieces, and which I now find myself hoping really are non-toxic!! The regular "snowman" shaped Kong toys are MUCH more durable than these things are. Had I known that beforehand, I would have spent my money accordingly. The picture I posted is the last remaining toy out of the four I ordered, and I most certainly want my money back (wish me luck)!! This toy is a complete WASTE of your money for any dog that is bigger than an aged chihuahua or that actually has teeth, so I suggest that you DO NOT purchase.

The same magic as the extreme chewer Kong cone!
Size: Large, Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
My lab hound mix LOVES this tire as much as he loves his extreme chewer Kong cones (we bought three of those!). He hasn't been able to cause any damage at all in the week or so that he's had it. We are always excited to find toys that he can't break! We're ordering a second tire for upstairs!

INDESTRUCTIBLE!
Our lab chews through every “indestructible” toy within a few hours. This ball is amazing! He has not been able to destroy this toy! Highly recommend for your most aggressive chewer!

Our dog is very happy with this ball!
Our lab is an aggressive chewer and LOVES his toys. I was looking for a chew toy that had a different shape than a regular ball or Kong and saw this. Our dog LOVES this toy because he can chew it when he wants to be alone and it keeps him entertained (especially when stuffed with food). He also plays "catch" with us by rolling the ball toward us with his nose. So far there is no indication that he is damaging it so I'm very pleased with the durability.
