Common Names: Peperomia 'Ripple Red', Red Ripple Peperomia
Botanical Name: Peperomia caperata 'Ripple Red'

Care Instructions

Light: Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain its vibrant red tones. Tolerates medium light but may lose some vibrancy in lower light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch its leaves.
Water: Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. Water sparingly, as this plant stores moisture in its thick leaves. Overwatering can lead to root rot.
Humidity: Thrives in moderate to high humidity. Mist occasionally or place near a humidifier in drier environments.
Feeding: Fertilize every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer) with a diluted liquid fertilizer. Reduce feeding in fall and winter.
Temperature: Maintain temperatures between 65°F and 80°F. Protect from cold drafts and temperatures below 60°F.
Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix rich in organic matter, such as one formulated for tropical plants.
