Peperomia ‘Sweet and Sour’

Description

Introducing ‘Sweet & Sour,’ an upright peperomia that is sure to be a delightful treat in any space! This baby rubber plant has glossy, spoon-shaped, fleshy leaves with creamy margins and marbled green centers. There is also a dash of pinkish-red highlighting, making ‘Sweet & Sour’ even more delectable! Over time, the upright stems of this peperomia may develop a trailing habit, ideal for spilling out of a container or hanging basket.

• For optimal performance, keep your Peperomia at 60-85°F (15-29°C).
• Peperomias prefer to be grown in medium to bright, indirect light. They may tolerate lower light, but will not grow as fast or have variegation that is as vivid. Direct sunlight can lead to leaf scorch.
• If your Peperomia is getting leggy or leaning to one side, it is stretching for more light. Move it to a brighter location and rotate your plant regularly to ensure even light distribution, and even growth.
• Peperomias aren’t all that fussy when it comes to humidity, but varieties with thinner, less succulent leaves may benefit from higher humidity.
• This succulent-like Peperomia prefers to dry out in between waterings. Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil are dry.
