Peperomia Magnoliifolia 4”

Peperomia magnoliifolia brings a sculptural touch to an indoor collection with thick, oval leaves and a compact, upright-to-spreading habit. Its fleshy foliage and sturdy stems create a full silhouette that sits comfortably on a shelf, desk, or bright windowsill out of direct afternoon sun.

This tropical peperomia rewards a restrained watering routine. Give it bright, filtered light and an airy potting mix, allowing the roots to dry partially between waterings.

Care

• Light: Bright, indirect light is ideal. Protect from strong, direct afternoon sun.
• Water: Allow the upper portion of the potting mix to dry before watering thoroughly. Let excess water drain, and do not leave the pot standing in water. Water less frequently when growth slows.
• Potting mix: Choose a loose, well-draining houseplant mix amended with perlite or fine orchid bark. Use a pot with drainage holes.
• Temperature: Keep in a warm indoor location, away from cold drafts and heating or air-conditioning vents.
• Humidity: Typical household humidity is generally suitable.
• Feeding: Apply a balanced houseplant fertilizer at a diluted strength during active growth, following the product label.
• Maintenance: Rotate occasionally for even growth. Pinch back elongated stems to encourage a fuller shape, and gently wipe leaves to remove dust.
