Peperomia Jellie, also known as Peperomia obtusifolia, is a small, easy-to-care-for houseplant that is known for its colorful foliage.
Care
Water: When the top 2-3cm of soil becomes dry. Allow the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Be cautious of overwatering.
Ideal Position: West- or east-facing
Light: Medium to bright, indirect or filtered light.
Humidigty: Prefers high humidity
When it comes to fertilizing peperomia plants, less is more. As a slow-growing epiphyte, the peperomia can go its entire life without supplemental fertilizer, getting what it needs from its planting media. However, if the soil is poor, use diluted liquid fertilizer once a month during the growing season. Do not fertilize in the winter.
Lightly prune Peperomia plants in the early spring to correct any leggy, sparse growth. Pinching back the stems just above a leaf node to help maximize the plant's lush appearance by encouraging more branching. Remove the end of each stem and the first set of leaves; you can pinch them off with your fingers or snip them off with hand pruners.
Pot is not included.
