Baby Tears (Pilea depressa)

Baby Tears is a charming trailing houseplant that creates a soft, lush look in small pots, mixed planters, and hanging displays. Its tiny leaves fill in quickly, making it an easy way to add volume and a finished edge to indoor arrangements. The gentle spill-over habit works especially well on shelves and plant stands, where it can cascade naturally. If you want a compact plant that brings a fresh, green texture with simple care, Baby Tears is a great choice.

Distinctive Features

This pilea is grown for its dense mat of small, round, bright green leaves held on fine trailing stems. The overall texture is delicate and cushiony, which helps soften hard lines in containers and adds a relaxed, natural feel indoors. It stays relatively low and spreading in a pot, but can trail nicely when given room to drape. Baby Tears is often used as a living mulch in mixed planters because it fills gaps and creates a cohesive, finished look.

Growing Conditions

  • Light: Bright, indirect light is best, and it can tolerate medium light with slower, looser growth.
  • Soil: Use a well-drained indoor potting mix in a container with drainage holes.
  • Water: Water when the top 1 inch of soil feels dry, then let excess water drain fully.
  • Humidity: Moderate humidity helps keep growth lush, especially in heated or air-conditioned rooms.
  • Temperature: Keep in warm indoor conditions and protect from cold drafts.

Ideal Uses

  • Focal Point: Use as a focal point in a small decorative pot where the dense, tiny leaves can be appreciated up close.
  • Trailing Houseplant: Let it cascade from shelves or plant stands to add movement and soften edges.
  • Mixed Containers: Use as a filler around upright plants to create a fuller, more finished arrangement.
  • Hanging Displays: Grow in a hanging pot for a compact, green waterfall effect.
  • Terrarium Planting: Add to enclosed displays where humidity stays higher and growth remains dense.

Low Maintenance Care

  • Pruning: Trim stems as needed to encourage branching and keep the plant thick and tidy.
  • Watering: Avoid letting the pot sit in standing water, and do not allow the soil to stay constantly soggy.
  • Feeding: Feed monthly in spring and summer with a balanced houseplant fertilizer at half strength.
  • Repotting: Repot every 1 to 2 years or refresh the top layer of soil to keep growth vigorous.
  • Monitoring: Watch for spider mites in dry air and rinse foliage occasionally to keep leaves clean.

Why Choose Baby Tears?

  • Soft Texture: Tiny leaves create a lush, cushiony look that complements most indoor plants.
  • Fast Fill-In: Dense growth helps containers look full and finished quickly.
  • Trailing Habit: Cascades naturally to add movement and soften edges on shelves and stands.
  • Great Mixer Plant: Works as a filler in mixed planters to tie different textures together.
  • Simple Care: Thrives with bright, indirect light and a consistent watering routine.

If you want a trailing plant that adds a soft green finish to indoor displays, Baby Tears is an excellent choice. Give it bright, indirect light, water when the top of the soil begins to dry, and trim occasionally to keep it dense. With a steady routine, it stays lush and brings a relaxed, fresh look to shelves, planters, and hanging pots.

This was a beautiful modern day re-telling of Beauty and the Beast
Format: Kindle
This was a beautiful modern day re-telling of Beauty and the Beast set in an old plantation homestead in New Orleans. Jonah is a hotshot lawyer who was climbing his way to top when a case he was involved in led to a tragedy that ended his life as he knew it. He now lives a lonely life in his family home, the Windisle Plantation. This is a heritage building with a tragic tale behind it. Clara moves to New Orleans when she is selected for the prestigious ballet company there. She hears about the Windisle Plantation and the mystery behind the ‘weeping wall’ and seems to get fixated on finding out the truth of the love story behind it. After researching as much as she can, Clara turns up at the weeping wall with a wish. It is rumoured that if you write a wish and poke it into the wall it may be granted. However, Clara’s wish is like no other before her and she is shocked to discover that there is a person living behind the wall. Jonah has never interacted with anyone who visits his wall but Clara’s wish stands out. His quiet life has been interrupted by this exquisite, beautiful girl who seems hell bent on getting to know him. There may be a big wall between them but over time a beautiful friendship forms between them, one that seems to overcome the physical barriers. Jonah begins to realise just how lonely he has been. Clara enlists Jonah to help her solve the mystery behind the weeping wall. In doing so she is also trying to encourage him to come back into the light, rather than hiding away in the dark. Jonah finds himself saying and doing things he never thought he would do again. Clara’s persistence and determination is changing things for him. I absolutely loved getting caught up in this fairy tale filled with mystery, trepidation and a beautiful friendship between a beast and his beauty ☺

Magical!
Format: Kindle
Wowww. This is the first book in a long time that I did not want to end. I was entranced by Jonah and Clara’s story, and the whimsical romance that came along with it. The Wish Collector is sort of a Beauty and The Beast meets Phantom of the Opera vibe. Clara is a ballerina new to the New Orleans dance company. She just moved to this vibrant, mysterious city and has while trying to acclimate to her new surroundings, she hears the tale of The Weeping Wall, a local New Orleans legend that surrounds a tragic love story from the 1800’s. Clara is so intrigued that she decides to visit the site of this lore, the supposedly abandoned Windisle Plantation home. Jonah was once on top of the world as New Orleans royalty. A young lawyer on the fast track at a prominent law firm, handsome, the toast of every dinner—until tragedy strikes, and he shamefully has closed himself inside the walls of Windisle. It’s here that he meets Clara—and so our story begins! This story has mystery, intrigue, local legend, and so much whimsy. I could not put this down!! I absolutely loved the dynamic between Jonah and Clara. This was very much a romance filled with so much longing and emotion. There is definitely spice, but this is a slow burn. The circumstances surrounding Jonah make him feel like a monster and he struggles badly with his feelings for Clara—le swoooon! The tale of the Weeping Wall is a secondary love story with a shroud of mystery that Clara is determined to solve. She and Jonah work together to try to put puzzle pieces together, all the while writing their own love story ❤️ I absolutely adored this book, and I think would make for a great movie. Can’t wait to read it again!!

Great new author for me!
Format: Kindle
A beautiful story from start to finish. A New Orlean’s setting added to the enchantment. Early American history was portrayed so well - heart wrenching, yet such an important part of the story, leading to the lovely heart warming finish.

Such a wonderful story
Format: Paperback
Mia knows how to write a book! This one did not disappoint. Clara moves to New Orleans and has no one. She’s is starting fresh in the city as a ballet dancer. She had to leave her family behind and come alone for health reasons. Jonah has lived here his whole life. His life used to look a lot different. Successful and handsome he had anything he wanted. Until it all went wrong. Jonah now spends his life behind the walls of his families plantation. He hides away and regrets some of his life choices. Clara shows up at a wall bordering his plantation to make a wish. Except she makes a wish to help someone else. Jonah and Clara form a quick friendship and a bond that is strong. As time goes on Jonah realizes he needs to come back to the world and he can make it a better place. He doesn’t need to listen to all the hate. He needs to keep his eyes on those that love him. This story was so good. It showed how people grow and change and how they fight to do the right thing (most of the time) and want to make those the care about happy. This showed the fight that we all have for love and those we love. Such a good book!!!

Legends and curses in New Orleans
Format: Kindle
The Wish Collector is a tale of heartbreak and misery. It takes place in New Orleans where legends and Voodoo curses are often used. Locals like to talk about Windisle a place known for it weeping wall where locals make wishes. When Clara stands before the wall she gets more than her wish granted. … Jonah is a man scarred by his mistakes. He lived behind the weeping walls. When Clara visits his home he finds a woman who is curious about the past. … Mia Sheridan’s passion for this storyline unfortunately was not mine. The writing is enchanting and beautiful. I guess I’m not the intended audience for this tale dating back to 1860. Three timeline: the legend of John and Angelina in 1860, a tragic accident from eight years ago which left Jonah living as a recluse, and the present is a modern day Beauty and the Beast between a young ballerina and a man punishing himself for his choices. … Do you ever know within the first few chapters a book that a story will be a middle of the road read? In your mind you’re thinking this is a three star read with the potential of becoming a five star read. Most often I can tell early on when a book is at best not going to be more than average. Unfortunately, that’s how I’m feeling about The Wish Collector. I had high hopes and expectations for this book. I even invested in both the audiobook and ebook. I’ve read quite a few books by Mia Sheridan. This one was on my back list. Some times when authors write from multiple genres I find where I’m stuck on liking some more than others. … I hate to say this about Zachary Webber, as the voice of Jonah, didn’t hit its mark. It wasn’t the voice I imagined of Jonah a man living in New Orleans. He grew up in New Orleans and I would imagine he would’ve taken on an accent. Virginia Rose was the voice of Clara. This is my first time experiencing this narrators performance I enjoyed it. I listened using the audible app. Anytime I can get both the ebook and audiobook together for a great deal I’m going to get both. I’m an eyes and ears person who benefits greatly from the written word and sound of words together to enhance my experience.
