Peperomia caperata - Emerald Ripple Peperomia 25cm

Peperomia caperata, commonly known as the Emerald Ripple Peperomia. This compact, low-maintenance plant is loved for its unique, textured leaves and is ideal for small spaces or as part of an indoor plant collection. Peperomia caperata is characterized by its heart-shaped, deeply ridged leaves. The leaves have a dark green color and a striking, rippled texture, which gives the plant its "ripple" nickname. Some varieties of Peperomia caperata also have reddish or purplish hues on the undersides of the leaves, adding to their visual appeal.

This plant remains small, typically growing to a height of about 6-8 inches (15-20 cm), making it a perfect fit for tabletops, windowsills, or small indoor spaces.

Plant Care Guide:

• Light: Peperomia caperata thrives in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate lower light conditions, but the plant will grow more slowly. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the delicate leaves and cause fading of the dark green color.

• Water: Water the plant when the top inch of soil feels dry. Peperomia caperata prefers slightly moist soil, but be cautious not to overwater, as it is susceptible to root rot. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings, and make sure the pot has good drainage.

• Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a mix designed for houseplants or succulents. A combination of peat, perlite, and regular potting soil works well to provide proper aeration and drainage for the roots.

• Pruning: Peperomia caperata requires minimal pruning. Remove any yellow or dead leaves to keep the plant looking tidy and encourage new growth. This also helps to prevent disease.
