Peperomia caperata

9.99 $

Peperomia caperata is a popular Peperomia species appreciated for its decorative foliage and ease of care, making it an ideal houseplant. Native to the rainforests of Brazil, this compact plant features fleshy, deeply wrinkled or ribbed leaves that can vary in color from dark green to purple-red, depending on the variety and growing conditions. The textured, glossy foliage of Peperomia caperata adds distinctive visual interest, and its small dimensions make it an excellent choice for windowsills, desks, or as part of a houseplant arrangement.

Origin: Brazil, where it grows in the humidity of tropical forests, often under the cover of trees.

Growth: Peperomia caperata has a moderate growth, forming a compact, rounded clump that can reach approximately 20 to 30 cm in height and width. Its compact nature and relatively slow growth make it perfect for growing in pots.

Flowers: The plant produces small flower spikes on stems that rise above the foliage. The flowers are simple, in the form of white or cream spikes, and although they are not as spectacular as the foliage, they add an understated charm when they appear.

Light: Prefers medium indirect light. Too much light can cause leaf damage, while too little light can reduce the vibrancy of foliage color.

Watering: Watering should be moderate, allowing the substrate to dry slightly between waterings. Like other Peperomias, it is sensitive to overmoistening, which can lead to root rot.

Substrate: A well-draining potting mix is ​​essential. A substrate for cacti and succulents, enriched with perlite, is ideal for ensuring good drainage while retaining sufficient humidity.

Toxicity: Peperomia caperata is generally considered non-toxic to humans and pets, making it safe for use in homes with children and pets.
