Peperomia 'Frost' 4"

Peperomia spp.
Also known as Baby Rubber Plant, peperomia is a genus of tropical plants with more than 1,000 known species. All have thick, fleshy leaves that contribute to drought tolerance and vigor. As a houseplant, the low, compact growing, tropical foliage plants vary with watermelon stripes, coarse, rippled foliage or rounded, rubbery leaves. 'Frost' offers larger, silver, iridescent, heart-shaped leaves that develop with an attractive mounding habit. This diverse plant family grows well in drier, indoor conditions, in mixed planters, or in small pots as a windowsill plant. Grow in medium, indirect lighting 6-8? from a sunny window, middle of a bright room, or in 12-14 hours of fluorescent lighting. Keep soil slightly dry, do not overwater. Supply extra humidity by setting on a shallow tray of moistened pebbles. Feed with a Osmocote or Miracle-Gro at half strength once a month, April to September.
