Know before you buy
Yes, this is an excellent choice for beginners. Its thick, waxy leaves store water, making it quite forgiving if you occasionally forget a watering session.
To bottom-water, place the 4-inch grow pot in a shallow bowl or saucer filled with a few inches of water. Allow the plant to soak for about 15 to 20 minutes until the top of the soil feels moist, then remove it and let it drain completely.
While the Peperomia is resilient, it performs best in bright, indirect light. Low light conditions may cause the plant to become leggy or lose its vibrant color, so a spot near a window with filtered light is ideal.
No, the Green Peperomia is not considered pet-safe. It is best to keep this plant on a high shelf or in a room that your pets cannot access.
The plant arrives in its original 4-inch plastic nursery grow pot. You can keep it in this pot or place it inside a decorative planter of your choice that has drainage holes.
