Plant Care
Watering:
Peperomia obtusifolia 'Variegated' prefers to dry out slightly between watering. Water it thoroughly when the soil is almost completely dry. Avoid overwatering or allowing it to sit in water, as this can lead to root rot. We recommend measuring the moisture of the soil with a moisture meter.
Light:
This plant prefers medium to bright indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight as it can scorch the leaves. If the plant isn't receiving enough light, it may start to stretch towards the light source, causing it to become leggy.
Fertilizing:
You can fertilize your Peperomia obtusifolia 'Variegated' once a month during the growing season with a balanced liquid fertilizer. Be sure to dilute the fertilizer to half strength, as over-fertilizing can damage the plant.
Repotting:
Peperomia obtusifolia 'Variegated' prefers to be slightly root-bound, so repotting isn't necessary very often. Repot the plant into a slightly larger pot with fresh, well-draining soil when you notice roots growing out of the drainage holes or the plant becoming too top-heavy. This is best done in the spring or summer.
