Compact and slow growing, peperomias make ideal candidates for terrariums and bottle gardens where space is limited. In the wild they are found colonising the floors of tropical rainforests - or nestling into the crooks of tree branches further up into the canopy. This plant is sent out as an unnamed and unlabelled peperomia, so the plant you receive may be a different variety to the one in the photo.
Please note that the plant comes in a nursery pot as standard, unless a decorative pot cover is included as an option.

Position in bright or moderate indirect light—avoid direct sunlight, as the patterned leaves can scorch. This houseplant thrives in a well-draining potting mix and prefers to dry out slightly between waterings: water when the soil is nearly dry, but never let the crown sit in water.
Ideal room temperatures are around 18-24°C (64-75°F), though it can tolerate down to about 10°C (50°F); avoid drafts. Though it tolerates normal household humidity, slightly elevated humidity will benefit it. Feed once or twice during the growing season with a half-strength balanced fertiliser.
