The fleshy foliage of this decorative houseplant is lustrous and rich green, and as the name suggests, its shape resembles a teardrop. Peperomia polybotrya 'Raindrop' is a compact plant, so perfect for a windowsill, table top or mantelpiece, where it will flourish in bright but indirect light.
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.
