Peperomia Multi Pack - 3 Live Plants in 4 Inch Pots - Varieties are Grower's Choice Based On Health, Beauty and Availability - Beautiful Clean Air Indoor Plant

Most peperomia plants should be kept in bright, indirect sunlight, in temperatures of between 65-80 °F. They should be watered infrequently once the top inch of soil has dried out, fertilized monthly through the growing season and potted in well draining potting soil. Peperomia is a perennial and related to pepper plants. It comes from a large South American family (about 1,000 species in the genus, a few from Africa). In fact, the name alone means “the plant related to the pepper.” Their succulent, heart-shaped leaves distinguish peperomia plants from other small potted tabletop houseplants. Unique, succulent leaves, bushy uprights or rosettes make many of the peperomia types attractive as indoor plants, and find fun to collect. These plants generally have a small root system making them ideal for dish gardens and other indoor pots. The best soil for these plants is a mixture of 50 percent peat moss and 50 percent perlite. Mixing fine gravel into the soil helps these plant’s roots get the air it needs to thrive. If you are growing peperomia as a houseplant, then avoid putting them in extremely sunny areas or in extremely dark areas. Anywhere in the middle and they will be happy. These plants even do well under fluorescent lights making them an ideal choice for the office and many different areas.
