Rosso Peperomia
PLANT CARE GUIDE
Placement
The Rosso Peperomia will do well in just about any home or office. Place her on an end table or bookshelf, or even your desk at work. Rotate the plant occasionally to encourage even growth.
Light Requirements
The Rosso Peperomia needs low to bright, indirect sunlight or fluorescent light. Avoid direct sunlight as it can burn the leaves.
Watering Needs
Water when the top several inches of soil are dry, about every other week. Water with fresh water lightly and slowly from above, allowing water to soak through to the roots, then tip out any excess water. Keep the leaves dry.
Temperature Preferences
Does well at room temperature between 60°F - 77°F. Cold temperatures should be avoided.
Humidity Tolerance
Prefers higher levels of humidity, around 75% or above, in summer months. In other months a normal humdity level is desired.
Repotting Needs
The plant can live happily in the provided pot for up to a year. Check if the plant is ready to be repotted by touching the soil and seeing if it has become loose, or if the roots have become overgrown. Repot using a rich, well-draining soil. You can also mix in perlite, sand, or gravel in with the soil to keep it from becoming too compact over time. When your plant is ready to be repotted, you can follow our simple how-to guide.
