How to care for your Peperomia
LIGHT: Medium to bright indirect sunlight. Avoid direct sun.
WATERING: Likes to be slightly moist at all times. Avoid waterlogging but also do not allow to dry out completely.
HUMIDITY: Enjoys humidity but will tolerate average home environments. Avoid drying heat or cold draughts. Humidity can be increased by pebble trays, grouping with other plants or a humidifier. Ideal terrarium plant.

FEEDING: Does not require much feeding. Use half strength liquid feed every 3-4 weeks in spring and summer. Feed less in autumn and winter – and only if plants continue to actively grow.

TOXICITY: Safe for pets and people.
