✨ Why You'll Love Baby Episcia ‘Silver Shield’
Gleaming silver-green baby leaves with dark veins—like living velvet
Ideal for terrariums, mini pots, or grouped displays
Already rooted and growing strong in a 6 cm nursery pot—ready to thrive
Pet-safe and non-toxic—worry-free for cat- or dog-friendly households
🌞 Light & Placement
Loves bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sun, which may scorch delicate young leaves. Perfect for windowsills, glass domes, or cozy indoor corners.
💧 Water & Humidity
Water when the top layer of soil begins to dry. Keep consistently moist but not soggy. Baby plants love humidity—ideal for terrariums or pebble trays.
🪴 Soil & Potting
Planted in a well-draining, peat-based mix with added perlite. Keep in its nursery pot until roots fill out, then repot gently into a slightly larger vessel in spring or summer.
🐾 Toxicity & Safety
Non-toxic to pets and safe for homes with animals. Still, it's best to keep baby plants out of nibbling range for their own protection.
🌱 Growth & Propagation
Will gradually develop into a compact trailing beauty. Once mature, it produces runners that can be snipped and replanted. For now, enjoy watching it grow!
📆 Seasonal & Special Care
Keep warm (18–24 °C) and avoid cold drafts. Fertilize lightly once the plant is more established. Mist occasionally to maintain lush growth.
🐛 Common Issues
Dry leaf tips: from low humidity—mist regularly or keep near other plants
Yellowing: from overwatering—let the soil breathe between waterings
Stretching: move to a brighter spot if light is too low
🧬 Botanical Background
Episcia cupreata ‘Silver Shield’ is a compact member of the African violet family, native to the tropics. This baby version brings all the sparkle in a small, manageable size—ideal for collectors or tiny-space dwellers across Europe.

Beautiful, Fast-Growing Prayer Plant!
I am genuinely impressed with my Maranta leuconeura—it’s one of the happiest plants in my collection! It arrived healthy and vibrant, with rich green leaves and those signature red veins that make it such a showstopper. But what really blew me away is how quickly it started growing.
The shipping was quick and smooth, and you can really tell the seller took care to protect the plant during transit.

Absolutely Stunning Plant – Healthy and Vibrant!
I couldn’t be happier with my Calathea makoyana! It arrived in perfect condition, well-packaged, with no damage to the leaves or soil.
This was my first time ordering a plant online, and the whole experience was smooth and professional. I’ll definitely be coming back for more! Highly recommend for anyone looking to add a statement plant to their indoor jungle.
