How to take care of Peperomia Red Margin

Sun: Indirect

Provide moderate to bright, indirect light. Too little light can result in leggy growth, while too much direct sunlight can cause leaf burn.

Light: Medium - Bright

Place in bright, indirect sunlight. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves.

Water: When Mostly dry

Peperomias prefer to be watered thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Allow excess water to drain away to prevent waterlogging, as Peperomias are susceptible to root rot.

Humidity: Any

Peperomias prefer moderate to high humidity levels. Consider placing a humidifier nearby or using a pebble tray to increase humidity around the plant.

Pet Friendly: Yes

Peperomia Red Margin is non-toxic to pets, making it a safe choice for homes with furry friends. However, it's still best to keep pets from ingesting any part of the plant.

Pro Tip

Rotate your Peperomia Red Margin plant regularly to ensure even growth and prevent it from leaning towards the light source. This will help maintain a balanced and symmetrical appearance, promoting healthy foliage development throughout the plant. Additionally, periodically wipe the leaves with a damp cloth to remove dust and improve the plant's ability to photosynthesize effectively.

Your Complete Guide to Pot Sizes: What Size Should You Choose?

When selecting a pot for your plant, it's important to find the right size. But with all the different options out there, how do you know which one is best? We're here to help!

MyGreenscape's pot sizes chart is a great resource for finding your perfect fit. Our easy-to-read chart takes out all the guesswork and helps you quickly choose the right size for your plant.

Smaller pots are best for seedlings or small plants just starting out. These tend to be shallow but wide, allowing enough room for the roots of the young plant but not too much where they get overcrowded. Medium-sized pots are ideal when your plant has grown from its infancy and is ready for more space. These are deeper and wider than small pots, so that it can accommodate larger root systems - making sure your plant gets enough nourishment while still giving it breathing room. Large pots are top choice if you have an established plant in need of lots of space - think trees and large shrubs! The spacious depth and width allow plenty of room for deep root systems without struggling for air or light.

No matter what size you choose, MyGreenscape has got you covered, with our pot sizes chart guaranteeing you find the perfect fit every time!
