General Peperomia care

While care can vary slightly between species, most Peperomias share similar needs.

Light: Prefer bright, indirect light. Direct sun can scorch the leaves, while too little light can cause leggy growth and fading colors. An east- or west-facing window is ideal.
Water: Allow the top inch or two of soil to dry out between waterings. Overwatering is a common problem and can lead to root rot, so it’s safer to underwater than overwater.
Soil: Use a well-draining, aerated potting mix. A mixture of potting soil, coco peat, and perlite works well.
Fertilizer: Feed sparingly during the growing season (spring and summer) with a diluted, balanced houseplant fertilizer.
Repotting: As they are slow-growing, they do not need frequent repotting. They prefer to be slightly root-bound.
Toxicity

Peperomias are non-toxic to cats, dogs, and other common household pets, making them a safe choice for pet owners.

Common problems

Root rot: The most common issue, caused by overwatering and poor drainage.
Drooping leaves: A sign of overwatering or, occasionally, underwatering. Check the soil moisture before watering.
Fading colors: If your variegated Peperomia’s patterns are disappearing, it may need more light.
Pests: Watch for common houseplant pests like mealybugs, spider mites, and aphids
