Hey everyone!

My dearest sister got a huge pot of pileas to me and I've separated them since. They are all in a bright window. It is not sunny here for weeks now so they are not in direct sun. I have some questions tho.

1. How is that they are all so green? :D on the pictures i have seen online, pileas had brown stems but mine look so young... when will they be browinsh?

2. One of the plant's leaves are really soft and they wrinkle like in the picture below. Does this mean that the plant is thirsty? The others do not have leaves like this.

3. Most of their upper leaves are curled in some way. What does it mean?

It's just young. Mine flatten as they grow. I have a picture in the database of my full plant and the young. Just the bottom of my plant is brown. The closer to where the new leaves are coming out, the greener it is. They like humidity, but don't like wet feet. So I run a cool air humidifier in my office during the day. I water well once a week. I do use a weak fertilizer mix in the water once a month with all my house plants. Smiling
