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.

Best face lotion for combination skin
Size: 1.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Best face lotion. Leaves my skin feeling hydrated without being oily (I have combination skin). Only downside is no sun protection. But lotions with sunscreen tend to make me break out. Ive used this lotion for about 8 years and its the only one that I dont break out with.

My Holy Grail for really good moisturizing!!
Size: 1.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Ok this is long but worth it, I hope. I absolutely LOVE this moisturizer. It is very moisturizing, and doesn't just sit on top of your skin, it soaks in! I messed up my skin barrier with some products because as I hit my 40's it couldn't handle the strong stuff (Retinal, Vit C, AHA/BHA) that I have used daily for 20 yrs. So rude, like hormone changes and wrinkles weren't enough, lol. All of a sudden my super oily skin was still oily, but also had really dry spots. I was at a loss. This moisturizer works so well and helped repair my skin barrier without breaking me out!! I also use the Avene Thermal Spring Water spray, it also really helped me get my skin back under control and I will never stop using it. The water spray is super light, feels like water, and soaks in so well... truly is very moisturizing while being super light. I apply that first, then my serums and moisturizer. **Other products I also use: the Avene Cleanance Concentrate I use on my areas where I get blemishes (still getting breakouts in your 40's is also rude)... it helps those areas stay clear but moisturized, doesn't dry my skin at ALL. Also use there Retrinal and A-Oxitive... my skin just was not tolerating my usual stronger Retinal and VitC. These two work really well without the irritation!! Iise them on alternating days for now. I have tried many many brands, skincare is my thing...and I truly love every single product I have used by this brand, really am glad I found this product line!! Hope this helps someone.

Great quality of product
Size: 1.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This cream has always been my favorite because it has great quality and effectiveness, I bought it two times and before I used to wear it in the summer and it did not make my skin oily. It is lighter, yet moisturizing if you know what I mean.

This is the new formula, with a blue cap
Size: 1.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This cream has been a great basic moisturizer for use with acne creams (.25% tretinoin, in my case). You may notice some reviewers saying it's fake because of the blue cap and the fact that it just says "soothing," but that's the new packaging. You can see that on the Avene website. This doesn't have the "luxe" feel of some other brands, but this did the job by keeping my skin moisturized and acne free. When I am in the mood to buy something else, I usually buy something else, but this is the best budget option - definitely better than any of the drugstore brands.
