The wide diversity of leaf shapes, colour and plant structure makes Peperomia a versatile houseplant which also purify the air. 

Peperomia is considered lucky in Brazil. It is given there as a reassuring gift that says: “Everything will be all right.” The name is derived from the Greek ‘peperi’ meaning 'pepper' and ‘homoios’, which means 'resembling’. 

As a houseplant you need to do virtually nothing for it; ‘loving neglect’ is the best policy. That makes Peperomia very suitable as an entry level plant for people whose fingers are not particularly green. 

What Comes In The Box

Lighting : Peperomia like indirect sunlight. As with most houseplants, too much direct sun can burn the leaves. 

Soil: Do not allow the soil to dry out completely, and do not water on the leaves, but onto the soil. Avoid standing water.

Water:  Give it a good watering every one to two weeks, allowing the soil to dry in between. 

This plant needs very little care
