The Peperomia Watermelon Mini is a fantastic beginners house plant, which makes them a staple in every house plant collection!
It gets its name from its appearance as each of its leaves is green and silver-striped and looks very similar to the rind of a watermelon. It is the 'mini' version of the classic watermelon peperomia we all know and love!
General Care Guide
Lighting - Peperomia can tolerate anything from bright indirect light to lower light conditions, but is happiest somewhere in between. Just be weary of direct sun as this may cause the leaves to burn and it can fade its spots.
Watering - Peperomia like to dry out at least 50% before re-watering as they can get root rot if left too wet for too long. It is also recommended to bottom water them to prevent rotting the stem out.
Soil - When it comes time to re-pot, use a well draining, all round soil mix, such as our GrowingGreen House Plant Mix.
Fertiliser - We recommend feeding every time you water using a fertiliser such as GT Foliage Focus or Grow.it Plant Fuel to help your plant thrive!
