Houseplants have long served a purpose beyond greening up interiors. Across many cultural traditions they are symbolic of different life events and are even believed to support luck and good fortune. The Chinese money plant is considered one of the luckiest, both in Feng Shui and the wider Chinese culture, particularly when it comes to wealth.
There are actually quite a few houseplants referred to as money plants, but the Chinese money plant (Pilea peperomioides) is one of the luckiest houseplants to incorporate into the home. Alongside its flat, round leaves representing abundance and good fortune, its easy nature makes it just as lucky and a good option for beginner plant parents.
