Pilea depressa—a creeping, dish-garden favorite
involucrata—panamiga—Fuzzy pointed oval leaves deeply quilted by a tight network of veins, piled pair on pair along branching stems. Foliage colors darkest green in shade, tinges of bronze in bright light. Flowers pinkish, nestled close to the last pair of leaves.
microphylla (serpyllifolia)—artillery plant—Tiny, pointed fresh-green leaves on spreading, somewhat upright branches. The male flowers explode their clouds of pollen when dry.

pubescens (‘Silver Panamiga’)—Oval leaves overlaid with silvery blue, grayish beneath, the veins indented sharply.
repens—blackleaf panamiga—Prostrate and creeping, the branches spreading and bearing nearly round, thin, bronzy leaves lined with violet beneath. This one holds its beady flowers atop tall stems.
seripillacea—Habit like a perfectly proportioned shrub but in most miniature proportions. Small round leaves and plentiful branches, light green and succulent. Flower clusters held out from the foliage by stems.
‘Silver Tree’—Copyrighted name for a species with brown-green leaves marked with a broad silver zone on each side of the center vein, corrugated by indented veins.
