Soleirolia soleirolii
Baby's Tears (S)
A mass of dainty little circular leaves in a bright mid-green, Baby's Tears resembles a magical carpet of greenery fit for a fairy home. Looking lovely as it spills over from a hanging pot, or used in mixed windowsill display, Soleirolia soleirolii brings a lush green fullness on a small scale. Though they don't require extra TLC, Baby's Tears will look their best in a slightly humid environment, with well draining soil and air circulation (meaning a terrarium is not ideal). Can easily regenerate from stems and has miniature, inconspicuous little flowers. An excellent houseplant that will add a unique texture to any existing collection.
CARE TIPS
Baby's Tears plants like bright, indirect light but no direct sun. Keep the soil of a Baby Tears plant moist but never soggy. Humidity and good air circulation will help Babys' Tears to thrive - great paired with a grouping of plants, or in a bathroom.
