Fairy Tree - artillery fern

Artillery fern (Pilea microphylla variegata) prefers direct sun to part shade.

Allow soil to dry out slightly before watering thoroughly. Terra cotta pots will dry out more quickly than glazed pots. 

Trim occasionally to maintain miniature tree shape. An annual root pruning will prevent it from outgrowing its pot.

If staked, check wire regularly. Adding a stake and trimming regularly may help if foliage becomes top heavy.
