Peperomia San Marino
Peperomia argyreia
I adore these little Peperomia. They grow very compact and have thick fleshy, slightly corrugated leaves. The dark greeny grey leaf tops are a stunning contrast to the red leaf undersides. More uncommon here in NZ.
Plastic pot diameter: 5.5cm
Light: Peperomia grow best in bright, indirect light. Please ensure it is not placed in direct sunlight as this can burn the leaves and/or fade the bright colours of the foliage. They will grow in medium to low light however it will not thrive.
Watering: Most Peperomia like humid conditions. This can easily be achieved by placing the plant under a glass dome ect. Allow the plant to dry out between waterings (ideally allow at least the top inch of soil to dry out before watering). Water thoroughly, allow the water to drain completely and never leave the plant to stand in water.
Growth: Peperomia can reach up to 30cm in width and height.
Other: Please keep me away from hot or cold drafts.
