Shakshuka is one of those meals that feels cozy and impressive without asking much of you, which is exactly why I turn to it when I’m tired of cooking but still want something nourishing and satisfying. This version leans into all the shortcuts that make weeknights easier. Frozen diced potatoes, canned chickpeas and a jar of marinara create a rich, smoky tomato base in minutes. Add a few eggs and a sprinkle of feta and you’ve got a comforting skillet dinner that’s substantial enough to stand on its own and ready in about 20 minutes.
I’ve been cooking and developing recipes for a long time, but even I hit a wall this past year and felt completely burnt out. That’s why I’m so passionate about sharing recipes like this one. I know what it’s like to stare at your kitchen at 6 pm and feel completely over it. My goal is to give you meals that meet you where you are, support your real life and still make you feel good about what you’re eating.
If you love chickpea recipes that are quick and comforting, I’ve got a few more you might enjoy. My teriyaki chickpeas are another cooking burnout favorite because they come together fast and pack in so much flavor with barely any effort. And if you want something even quicker, the buffalo chickpea wraps take about 10 minutes and use simple ingredients you probably already have on hand. They’re both great options for nights when you need dinner to be as easy as possible.

Ingredient highlight
This is not a full list of ingredients (you can find that in the recipe card) but some important ingredients I thought needed to be highlighted.
Frozen diced potatoes – These are the ultimate cooking burnout club hack. They add heartiness without any peeling, chopping or extra prep. I usually look for a bag where the only ingredient is potatoes, but if your store carries versions with onions or green peppers mixed in, those work great too and add even more flavor.
Jarred marinara sauce – A good marinara is the shortcut that makes this shakshuka taste like it simmered for much longer than it did. I like using a roasted garlic marinara because the flavor blends well with the smoked paprika and cumin. If your sauce leans more basil heavy, that’s fine too, just use what you already have.
Step by step instructions
Tips for success
Add the rest of the feta to each plate. It creates a pretty presentation and adds a fresh pop of flavor.
Serve with crusty bread or naan. Perfect for scooping up the tomato sauce and makes the meal even more filling.
Let the potatoes brown a bit. Even a little color adds great flavor with zero extra effort.
Use a large skillet. A 10–12 inch skillet gives the eggs room to cook evenly without crowding.
Adjust the spice level easily. Add crushed red pepper flakes for heat or reduce smoked paprika for a milder flavor.
Finish with fresh parsley right before serving. It brightens the whole dish and balances the smoky spices.
Don’t stress if the yolks cook more than you hoped. The dish is still delicious, hearty and flavorful even with firmer yolks.

Preheat a large (10-12 inch) skillet over medium heat for 2 minutes.
Spray with avocado oil and add frozen potatoes. Cook for 4-5 minutes, adding about 1 tablespoon of oil to the potatoes.
16 oz frozen diced potatoes, 1 tablespoon avocado oil
Add tomato paste and cook for 1 minute.
2 tablespoons tomato paste
Add chickpeas, paprika, cumin, garlic powder and salt. Stir well.
1 can chickpeas, 1 tablespoon smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon salt
Add the jar of marinara, stir well. Let the marinara come up to a simmer.
24 oz marinara sauce of choice
Make wells for the eggs using the back of a spoon.
Crack eggs into wells. Put the lid on and cook for 5-7 minutes until eggs are cooked to your liking.
6 eggs
Crumble feta over eggs and sprinkle with chopped parsley. Add optional crushed red pepper flakes as well.
¼ cup feta cheese, 2 tablespoons flat leaf parsley, ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Serve with crusty bread or salad for a simple meal.
Grease the skillet for the potatoes. Lightly spray or drizzle avocado oil before adding the potatoes, then add a little more as they cook. This prevents sticking without creating hot-oil splatters.
Rinse the chickpeas well. Draining and rinsing removes the liquid they’re stored in, which can cause digestive discomfort and helps the chickpeas sauté better.
Let the marinara come to a simmer. Add the eggs only once the sauce is bubbling gently. This helps the whites set quickly while keeping the yolks soft.
If you are worried about cracking eggs right into the pan, crack them into a small ramekin first so it’s easier to catch shells.
Make small wells for the eggs. Use the back of a spoon to create spaces for each egg so they stay in place and cook evenly. This helps the eggs have somewhere to go and they stay in one place.
Cover the skillet tightly. A tight-fitting lid helps steam the eggs so the whites cook through without overcooking the yolks.
Check the eggs early. Every stove is different. Start checking around 5 minutes so you can stop cooking as soon as the whites turn opaque.
Add feta right after cooking. Sprinkle some feta on the hot skillet so it softens slightly and blends into the sauce.

How to serve
This shakshuka is a complete meal on its own, so you don’t need to add anything if you’re short on time or energy. If you do want a little something on the side, a bagged salad with your favorite dressing is an easy way to add extra veggies without more prep.
Common questions
What if I don’t have chickpeas?
If you’re out of chickpeas, use your favorite white beans instead. Cannellini beans are my top pick because they hold their shape well and blend nicely with the smoky tomato sauce.
Do I have to cook the eggs in the sauce?
No. If you prefer scrambled or poached eggs cooked your favorite way, you can absolutely make them separately and spoon them on top of the shakshuka. It’s a great option if you’re particular about how you like your eggs or don’t want to worry about timing.
Can I make this spicier?
Yes. Add crushed red pepper flakes, a pinch of cayenne or use a spicy marinara to give the dish more heat. This recipe is flexible, so you can adjust the spice level to what you enjoy.
Can I make this dairy free?
Absolutely. Just skip the feta or use dairy free feta. The shakshuka is still hearty, smoky and flavorful without it.
Is this good for meal prep?
The potatoes and chickpeas in the sauce reheat really well. When I tested leftovers, I reheated the base and cooked fresh eggs on the stove to serve on top, and it was wonderful. I haven’t tested reheating the eggs that cook in the sauce, so I can’t speak to how well they hold up. questions
How do I store leftovers?
Store the chickpea and potato mixture in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. For best results, keep any cooked eggs separate when reheating.
How do I reheat leftovers?
Reheat the chickpea potato mixture in a skillet or microwave until warm. I recommend cooking fresh eggs when serving leftovers since reheated eggs tend to get rubbery.
With Christmas just around the corner our family is in full holiday mode. That means hosting, baking, and making tasty treats like this peppermint date bark. It’s naturally sweetened with dates and is full of nutrients.
This dessert looks pretty on the plate for guests, but it shines just as bright for an everyday dessert for the family. I’ll make a double batch and freeze the extra for a quick and easy way to have dessert on hand.
Peppermint Date Bark Ingredients
You’ve probably heard of chocolate bark before. It usually involves waxy tasting, super sweet chocolate covered in fruit, nuts, or candy. Bark candy has gotten an upgrade in recent years and there are lots of great recipes. However, they can still rely on a lot of sugar.
Mighty Medjool Dates
This version though relies on Medjool dates for the bulk of the sweetness. These dates are full of fiber and have modest amounts of iron, calcium, potassium, and magnesium. They’re also a good source of vitamin B6 and copper. Medjool dates are rich in antioxidants to fight free radical damage.
Researchers have studied their carotenoid and phenolic acid antioxidants and discovered benefits when it comes to heart health. A 2021 study concluded eating whole dates helped improve heart health markers. This included better cholesterol levels, and lower oxidative stress and inflammation.
Cacao vs Chocolate Chips
Instead of regular chocolate chips, I used two kinds of cacao wafers for this peppermint date bark. Cacao wafers are pure chocolate without the added milk or sugar. They have calcium, iron, antioxidants, and other nutrients that are great for overall health.
Cacao butter wafers are made from the pure fatty part of the cacao bean. They’re similar to white chocolate chips, but again without the added milk and sugar. I added a little coconut oil to the cacao butter wafers and cacao wafers when melting for a more spreadable texture.
The addition makes this peppermint bark a great vegan, allergen-friendly option for anyone who wants to avoid dairy.
Nut Butter (and Substitutes)
I love the smooth, creamy flavor of almond butter in these. You can also make date bark with peanut butter. Need a nut free option? To make date bark without peanut butter or other nut butters, substitute sunflower butter. And instead of the chopped almonds, try pumpkin seeds or hemp seeds for some crunch.
While the original date bark recipes tasted more like a Snickers bar, these have a mint flavor. I added some crushed candy canes to the top for some festive sweetness. Most peppermint candy has ingredients I prefer to avoid, but I really like these ones from Yum Earth for an occasional treat. They’re naturally flavored with real mint, use organic sugar, and are colored with fruits and veggies.
Peppermint date bark is high in calories, but it’s also high in healthy fats and nutrition so it’s filling. Here’s how to make it!
Peppermint Date Bark Recipe
Fold a piece of parchment paper in half and lay it open on a flat surface. Slice each pitted date in half lengthwise, but don’t cut all the way through, the halves should remain attached. Arrange the dates on one half of the parchment in four rows of three.
Lightly wet the parchment paper. Fold the parchment over the dates and gently roll with a rolling pin to flatten them evenly.
Spread almond butter evenly over the flattened dates. Sprinkle the chopped almonds over the almond butter layer.
Fill a pot or the bottom of the double boiler with a few inches of water and bring to a simmer. Add the chocolate chips and 1 teaspoon of coconut oil to the top pot or bowl.
Pour the melted chocolate over the almond butter and date layer and spread evenly.
Place candy canes or peppermint candies in a small bag and crush with a rolling pin or heavy object. Sprinkle the crushed peppermint evenly over the chocolate.
Melt the cacao butter wafers in the top of the double boiler or glass bowl with 1/2 teaspoon coconut oil. Drizzle or pipe the cacao butter over thh top of the bark.
Sprinkle flaky sea salt over the top.
Lift the bark using the parchment onto a baking sheet and chill in the fridge or freezer until fully set, about 20–30 minutes.
Slice or break into pieces and enjoy!

Native to Southern Mexico, Poinsettias were first introduced by Joel Roberts Poinsett. Prominent for its vibrant red colored bracts, it is one of the best selling annual in the USA.
Though renowned to bloom in Christmas, Poinsettias are grown as annual plant in their native regions.
So, can make them bloom with proper care? We shall look about in detail later in this article.
While many people discard them after the festive season, these beauties can thrive year after year with proper care, rewarding you with blooms every holiday season.
But what does it take to make a poinsettia bloom again? This guide dives into the science, care, and steps needed to ensure your poinsettias stay healthy and colorful through the years.
When Do Poinsettias Bloom?
Poinsettias naturally bloom during late fall and early winter, typically starting in late November or early December.
This aligns them perfectly with the holiday season. Their blooming is triggered by photoperiodism, meaning they require 14-16 hours of complete darkness each night for 8-10 weeks to develop their colorful bracts.
Under ideal care, their vibrant display can last for 4-6 weeks, extending into January. Cool nighttime temperatures (60-65°F) and consistent care, such as proper watering and light exposure, are key to ensuring a healthy bloom.
With dedication, poinsettias can re-bloom year after year, making them a festive and enduring addition to any home.
Natural Bloom Cycle: In tropical climates, poinsettias bloom naturally during winter.
Indoors and Artificial Lighting: If grown indoors, their bloom cycle can be influenced by artificial lighting, which might delay or prevent blooming.
Understanding their natural blooming cycle is crucial to mimic conditions for successful reblooming.
How to Make Poinsettias Bloom Year After Year?
Reducing the light exposure triggers poinsettias to produce colored bracts. You can shorten the days artificially.
Poinsettias are a holiday favorite, admired for their vibrant red, pink, or white bracts that brighten winter homes.
While many discard them after the season, these plants can bloom again with the right care and conditions.
Making poinsettias rebloom requires replicating their natural light and temperature cycles, coupled with consistent care.
Here’s a detailed guide to help you enjoy poinsettias year after year.
1. Provide the Right Light Conditions
Bright Light During Growth
After the holiday season, place your poinsettia in a well-lit area with indirect sunlight for 6-8 hours daily. This helps the plant recover and maintain its foliage.
Darkness for Reblooming
To trigger blooming, start a strict light-dark regimen in early fall (around late September or October):
Provide 14-16 hours of uninterrupted darkness every night for about 8-10 weeks.
During the day, expose the plant to bright, indirect sunlight for 8-10 hours.
Avoid exposing the plant to artificial light during its dark period, as this can disrupt the blooming cycle.
2. Regulate Watering
Water During Active Growth
Water the plant thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry, ensuring excess water drains out.
Avoid letting the plant sit in standing water to prevent root rot.
Adjust Watering for Reblooming
During the fall bloom preparation period, reduce watering slightly to avoid overhydration while still keeping the soil moist.
3. Fertilize Regularly
During the growing season (spring and summer), feed your poinsettia with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer (10-10-10 or 20-20-20) every 2-4 weeks.
As the blooming phase approaches in fall, switch to a low-nitrogen fertilizer to support bract development.
Why Are Poinsettias Red?
The red color of poinsettias comes from bracts, not flowers. The bracts turn red due to a process called photoperiodism—when the plant reacts to changes in light exposure.
Light and Color: Extended periods of darkness in the blooming cycle trigger the production of anthocyanins, pigments responsible for red coloration.
Health and Color Intensity: The vibrancy of the bracts depends on the plant’s health, nutrition, and exposure to ideal light conditions.
Bracts can also be pink, white, or cream, depending on the poinsettia variety, but the process of triggering color remains the same.
How to Get Poinsettias to Rebloom?
Poinsettias are photoperiodic plants, meaning their blooming is influenced by light exposure. To rebloom, they need long periods of darkness at night and bright, indirect light during the day.
Understanding this cycle is key to replicating the natural conditions poinsettias experience in their native environment.
1. Care After the Blooming (January to March)
Prune the plant: Once the colorful bracts fade, cut back the stems to about 4-6 inches tall, leaving 2-3 leaf nodes per stem.
Provide bright light: Place the plant in a sunny spot where it gets 6-8 hours of indirect light daily.
Water properly: Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, ensuring the pot has good drainage to avoid root rot.
Fertilize monthly: Use a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer (10-10-10 or similar) to encourage healthy growth.
2. Encourage New Growth (April to August)
Repot if needed: In early spring, move your poinsettia to a slightly larger pot with fresh, well-draining soil.
Pinch back growth: In July, trim the tips of the new growth to encourage branching and create a bushier plant.
Place outdoors: When the weather warms, move the plant outdoors to a shaded area, ensuring it’s protected from direct sunlight and harsh winds.
3. Prepare for Reblooming (September to October)
Create darkness: Starting in late September, provide your poinsettia with 14-16 hours of uninterrupted darkness every night for 8-10 weeks. You can place it in a dark closet, cover it with a cardboard box, or move it to a room with no artificial light at night.
Provide daylight: During the day, place the plant in bright, indirect sunlight for 6-8 hours.
Monitor temperature: Maintain consistent temperatures of 65-70°F (18-21°C) during the day and slightly cooler temperatures at night (around 60°F/15°C).
4. Promote Bract Development (November)
By mid-November, the bracts should begin to change color. Reduce the dark period and keep the plant in bright, indirect light to enhance its display.
Avoid overwatering or overfertilizing during this stage, as the plant’s energy should focus on blooming.
Conclusion
Poinsettias are more than just seasonal decorations; they are living plants that can bloom year after year with a little care and dedication.
By understanding their natural cycles, providing the right environment, and committing to their care, you can enjoy the beauty of poinsettias for many seasons to come.
Whether you’re drawn to their festive red bracts or enjoy the challenge of making them rebloom, poinsettias are a rewarding addition to any plant collection.

Food and Drug Administration officials say they are going to scrutinize vaccines more stringently.

The Food and Drug Administration intends to get tougher on vaccine approvals, as top officials raised concerns about the risk of COVID vaccines for children.
Speaking on Fox News Saturday morning, FDA Commissioner Marty Makary said the agency would no longer “rubber-stamp new products that don’t work,” claiming it made a “mockery of science.”
Makary’s comments came the day after FDA’s top vaccine regulator, Dr. Vinay Prasad, told his team the agency would change its annual flu vaccine framework, update vaccine labels to be “honest,” and make other changes to how it reviews vaccines, according to contents of an internal email reviewed by NPR and reported on first by a PBS News Hour correspondent and later byThe Washington Post.
Prasad wrote that the FDA would also no longer authorize vaccines for pregnant women without stricter requirements. And for pneumonia vaccines, manufacturers will have to prove they reduce disease rather than show they generate antibodies. He also raised questions about giving multiple vaccines at the same time, which is standard practice.
The changes could make it much more difficult and expensive for vaccines to get approved, further limiting the availability of vaccines, which are considered among the safest and most effective tools for protecting people against infectious diseases.
While all vaccines carry some risks, most public health experts argue the current process for vetting vaccines before marketing has long assured that the benefits of vaccines outweigh their risks. Studies required after vaccines are approved and surveillance systems, including the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), also flag potential safety issues once vaccines are in use.
FDA says an analysis links COVID shots to some deaths
Makary said on Fox News that 10 children had died from the COVID shot during the Biden administration, but did not offer specifics about how the FDA came to that conclusion. Millions of children have received the vaccine.
Officials with the Department of Health and Human Services and Food and Drug Administration didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment on the COVID analysis and changes to vaccine review standards.
According to the FDA email from Prasad, he told the agency’s biostatistics and pharmacovigilance team to analyze 96 reported deaths from 2021 to 2024, and they determined 10 children died “after and because of” the COVID vaccine. But Prasad said the true number was likely higher.
“Because he doesn’t provide any evidence, he is asking us to trust him on an important issue,” Offit said. “All this will do is scare people unnecessarily. At the very least, he should provide all the evidence he has so that experts in the field can review it and decide whether he has enough data to prove his point.”
Dr. Jesse Goodman, a professor at Georgetown University who held Prasad’s job at FDA from 2003 until 2009, said in an email that the FDA’s Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, which oversees vaccine approval, has been “recognized globally as a gold standard regulator.” Goodman defended “immunologic endpoints like antibody levels” for the accelerated approval of pneumonia and influenza vaccines. He said science supports their use and they are confirmed with studies after approval: “These approaches have helped provide children and adults with timely access to safe and effective vaccines, saving many lives.”
Michael Osterholm, an epidemiologist at the University of Minnesota, reviewed the email from Prasad and challenged his statement that “COVID-19 was never highly lethal for children.” Osterholm also questioned the FDA’s latest analysis of adverse event reports attributing the 10 deaths to COVID vaccines.
“Prasad’s email is filled with factual mistakes and misrepresents both the severity of COVID in children (1597 deaths in 2020-2022) and how the US responded to the first signals of possible vaccine-associated pediatric deaths in May 2021,” Osterholm wrote in an email to NPR.
“While Prasad’s email notes 10 such deaths, these cases have never been presented for review by the medical and public health communities or published in the medical literature,” Osterholm continued. “Given the record of this Administration to misrepresent scientific data regarding vaccines, until these cases have been reviewed by an expert third party, like the National Academy of Science[s], we can not accept the fact they are vaccine-associated deaths.”
Surveillance system collects vaccines reports
The FDA makes public data from the VAERS surveillance system co-sponsored by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. But FDA cautions, “it is important to note that for any reported event, no cause and effect relationship has been established.” In his email, Prasad wrote that “with case reports, causality is typically assessed on a subjective scale. In this scale ranging from certain to unlikely — certain, possible/likely, and probable are broadly considered as related to the product.”
Makary said on Fox News that when the COVID shot was first rolled out, it was “amazing” for people at high risk of coming down with severe disease, but things have changed.
“Back in 2020, we saw a reduction in the severity of illness and lives saved, but now recommending that a 6-year-old girl get another 70 million COVID shots – one each year for the rest of her life – is not based on science. And so we’re not going to just rubber stamp approvals without seeing some scientific evidence.”
The claim is the latest move by Trump administration health officials questioning the safety and effectiveness of vaccines and how the government has regulated them. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has long questioned vaccines.
The FDA restricted eligibility for the updated COVID vaccines in August after announcing the agency planned to require more evidence about the shots’ safety and effectiveness going forward.
CDC committee will meet to review vaccine policies
The FDA email on vaccine policy comes just before the CDC convenes a crucial two-day meeting of that agency’s influential Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices on Dec. 4-5. The committee is in the process of conducting a major review of how children are inoculated against dangerous infectious diseases such as measles, mumps, rubella, polio and hepatitis B.
Many public health experts are concerned the committee will upend the childhood vaccination schedule. It could move to delay the timing of some inoculations, space out vaccinations and call for the reformulation of some vaccines. Taken together, the moves could result in fewer children getting protected and the resurgence of once-vanquished diseases.
Asked about Makary and Prasad’s claims that the COVID vaccine caused deaths among 10 children, Moderna, whose COVID vaccine is approved for children as young as 6 months old, pointed to a statement it made in September. The company says that multiple published, peer-reviewed studies from a variety of sources show its shot is safe and that it is “not aware of any deaths in the last year or pertinent new information from prior years.”
Moderna says it monitors its vaccine’s safety along with regulators in more than 90 countries. “With more than one billion doses distributed globally, these systems — including in national health systems across Europe, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and the U.S. — have not reported any new or undisclosed safety concerns in children or in pregnant women.”
Pfizer did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
The aluminum plant, Pilea cadierei, is an evergreen herbaceous perennial that grows outdoors in part shade in USDA Hardiness Zones 11 and 12, and indoors in bright indirect sunlight in all locations.
It has a shrub-like, clumping growth habit and is appreciated for having texturally rich foliage that is green with silver markings.
P. cadierei is one of approximately 600 types of non-stinging Pilea speciesin the Urticaceae, or nettle family that contains stinging nettle and clearweed.
We link to vendors to help you find relevant products. If you buy from one of our links, we may earn a commission.
In this article, we discuss all you need to know to cultivate a showy aluminum houseplant of your own.
Here’s what’s in store:
Also known as watermelon pilea, the silver-streaked foliage of P. cadierei resembles the striping on the rind of the classic summer melon.
It’s an intriguing pattern. Between the leaf veins there are raised areas, and the fact that they are highlighted with silver makes them stand out strikingly.

Species:Cadierei
The leaves have serrated margins, and are a cross between elliptical and ovate in shape, as some are pointed, and others are more rounded.
The flowers are nondescript with a greenish-white color. They grow in cymes, which are flat-topped inflorescences, or clusters.
In their natural habitat, blooms appear in spring and summer, but they are rarely seen on houseplants.
With a manageable mature height of nine to 12 inches and a spread of six to nine inches, this little cutie is well suited to indoor gardening, especially in small spaces where it can shine as a standalone showpiece.
P. cadierei is native to China and Vietnam, where it grows as a ground cover over the jungle floor, thriving in shade and dappled sunlight with an abundance of heat and humidity.
P. cadierei likely made its way west as one of a host of tropical specimens destined for study, cultivation, and introduction to the burgeoning ornamental plant market of the early 20th century, when imported palms graced Victorian parlors.
And although it is a relatively short-lived species that is unlikely to last more than five years, it’s so easy to propagate from stem cuttings that you can enjoy it well into the future.
How to Grow
Keep your plant in a room with temperatures between 60 and 75°F, and provide bright indirect light.
Direct sunlight, especially through a windowpane, can scorch foliage and should be avoided.
Use an organically rich, loamy potting medium that is light and airy, moisture retentive, and well-draining. A pH of between 5.0 and 6.0 is ideal.
Aluminum plants thrive in soil that is kept evenly moist, but not waterlogged.
Water the plant before the soil in the pot dries out. Take care to water the soil, not the leaves, as wet leaves are prone to diseases and rotting.
If your home is especially dry, you may want to increase the relative humidity for your aluminum plant.
You can do this by setting the plant on a tray of pebbles with water or by clustering a group of houseplants together.
At planting time and each spring, feed with a well-balanced liquid fertilizer per package instructions.
Continue to feed monthly during the growing season to stimulate the production of healthy foliage.
In autumn, growth slows down, and a period of dormancy begins. Reduce watering and suspend fertilizing until the following spring.
Note that if bright indirect light is unavailable, a good grow light is a viable option. Please see our article on grow lights to choose the best model for you.
Where to Buy
It’s easy to fall in love with a watermelon pilea when you start with a quality product that has been well-cared for during its nursery days.
Find aluminum plants now from BubbleBlooms via Amazon in four-inch pots.
In addition to full-size plants, there is a dwarf variety. P. cadierei ‘Minima’, with an especially petite height of only eight to 10 inches. It has the same rich green and silver leaf markings, and cultural requirements.
Maintenance
This is a moderate amount of maintenance involved in caring for your aluminum plant during the growing season.
In addition, this is a fast-growing species that requires regular pruning during the growing season to maintain a compact form.
The removal of dead and damaged leaves as well as leggy stems optimizes visual appeal.
Always sanitize pruners in a 10 percent bleach solution (one part bleach to nine parts water) before and after use.
Make cuts just above a pair of leaves to stimulate upward foliar growth.
If you are going to use the pruned stems as cuttings to propagate new plants, recut them just below a pair of leaves to stimulate root growth below the leaf node.
To encourage bushier growth, you can wash your hands and use your thumb and index fingernails to periodically pinch off the top inch or two of fresh spring and summer growth.
Propagation
To start your own watermelon pilea, you’ll need to take a stem cutting from an existing plant or purchase a new one from a nursery that you can transplant to your own pot as desired.
First, let’s talk about taking cuttings and rooting them in either water or soil. Then we’ll move on to nursery pots.
From Stem Cuttings
The best time to take cuttings is during the growing season in spring or summer.
To take a cutting from a stem, start at the growing tip and measure down about three inches.
Use clean scissors to cut cleanly across the stem about an eighth of an inch below a pair of leaves.
Snip off the lowest leaves so you’re left with a length of bare stem at least two inches long, with the top leaves intact.
Choose a four- to six-ounce container and sanitize it with a 10 percent bleach solution (one part bleach to nine parts water), then thoroughly rinse and dry it.
Place the stem in the container and fill it with two inches of water.
Set the container in a location with bright indirect sunlight and a temperature between 60 and 75°F.
Change the water every few days to keep it fresh.
You’ll see fragile white roots sprouting from the bottom of the stem in a few weeks.
In another week or so, it’s time to transplant the cutting to potting soil.
Fill the pot three quarters full with your choice of potting medium and make a one-inch-deep hole.
Gently insert the rooted stem into the hole and tamp the soil around it securely, then water well.
If you wish to start your cutting in soil, you can dip the cut end in rooting hormone powder, then set the cutting one inch deep in a starter pot filled three quarters full of potting medium.
Maintain even moisture. New growth is evidence of successful root formation. At this point you can pot it up into a larger container.
From a Nursery Pot
When you purchase a potted specimen, you may wish to repot it in a container of your choice.
Choose a container that will accommodate the mature dimensions of the plant, and ensure that it has drainage holes in the bottom.

Gently unpot the plant and loosen the soil and roots.
If they are tightly coiled, or root bound, you can snip the lowest roots to loosen them and flay them outward to encourage them to spread out.
Place the entire contents of the original pot in the new container. Set it so the plant is at the same depth in the new pot as it was in the old.
Fill in with organically rich potting soil as needed. Ideally, you should leave one inch of space from the rim of the pot to the soil surface to allow for watering without overflowing.
Tamp the soil down to secure the plant in the new pot, and water well.
Pests and Disease
With bright, indirect light, moderate watering, rejuvenating pruning, and monthly fertilization, your watermelon pilea will enjoy good health and be able to fend off many ailments.

However, houseplants in rooms that are too hot and dry may succumb to pests like aphids, mealybugs, or spider mites.
Caught early, a firm dousing with the kitchen sprayer followed by a treatment with organic insecticidal neem oil should do the trick.
Getting rid of these pests is a must, as they are carriers of plant diseases, and their sap-sucking can cause extensive foliar damage.
When a pest infestation can’t be controlled, as a last resort, you can cut all the stems to the crown and discard them in the trash.
With a nourishing dose of liquid houseplant fertilizer and regular watering, the stems may regrow.
The following diseases are common to P. cadierei:
Anthracnose (Colletotrichum spp.)
Myrothecium Leaf Spot (Myrothecium roridum)
Pythium Root Rot (Pythium spp.)
Rhizoctonia Aerial Blight (Rhizoctonia solani)
Xanthomonas Leaf Spot (Xanthomonas campestris)
Southern blight (Sclerotium rolfsii)
Most of these are caused by fungal pathogens or water molds (oomycetes). Symptoms can be hard to distinguish, and most spell disaster.
Only Pythium root rot and Rhizoctonia aerial blight may respond to fungicidal treatment.
The bottom line is this: When plants are too hot and dry, they may succumb to sap-sucking pests.
And when the foliage stays wet, it becomes a breeding ground for pathogens, most of which cause diseases that are are incurable.
It’s important to be proactive!
Avoid both under- and overwatering, and always water the soil, not the leaves, to prevent moisture buildup.
A Pleasant Little Companion
You’re going to love not only the attractive form of watermelon pilea, but the versatility as well.
It makes an elegant addition to your houseplant collection, and a great home office companion as well.
With organically rich, well-draining potting medium, a warm room, bright indirect light, monthly feedings, and consistent moisture, you’re well on your way to success.
Don’t you think it’s time to add P. cadierei to the to-do list in your handy garden planner?
