Plant Health
Pilea peperomioides plants will regularly drop leaves--especially in their infancy--which are quickly replaced with new growth. Typically one leaf will turn yellow and will fall off naturally. If you find that several leaves are turning yellow or drooping all at the same time, it could be a sign that your plant is lacking water, sunlight, or other nutrients that it needs to thrive.
