Care Guide:

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate low to medium light. The colors of the leaves may become less vibrant in lower light conditions, so provide bright, filtered light for the best results.
• Watering: Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Peperomias are relatively drought-tolerant, so be careful not to overwater. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings to avoid root rot. Ensure the pot has good drainage.
• Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity but can tolerate average indoor humidity. If your home is particularly dry, consider misting the leaves occasionally or placing the plant on a humidity tray.
• Soil: Use a well-draining, lightweight potting mix. A cactus or succulent mix works well as it prevents the roots from staying too wet.
• Fertilizer: Feed with a diluted, balanced liquid fertilizer once a month during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce fertilizing in the fall and winter when the plant is dormant.
• Temperature: Thrives in temperatures between 60–80°F (15–27°C). Avoid exposure to cold drafts or temperatures below 50°F (10°C), as this can stress the plant.
• Pruning: Peperomia 'Ginny' is a compact grower, but you can prune back any overgrown stems to maintain its shape and encourage bushier growth. Regular trimming also helps keep the plant looking tidy.
