Due to its top-heavy nature, your Watermelon Peperomia may lean or flop to one side. This is generally normal and doesn't necessarily indicate an unhealthy plant. As the plant matures and fills out, it should become more stable. In the meantime, you can add a small stake to provide gentle support and help the plant remain upright
Peperomia is a large genus of mostly small, epiphytic plants that grow on rotting wood in tropical & subtropical regions of the world! Most Peperomia have thick stems, fleshy leaves, & very thin, fibrous roots.
~Do Not let Peperomia sit in excess water. As epiphytes, in the wild they would be growing on tree trunks or branches in the forest understory where they would get most of their water just from dew or moisture in the air.
~Do Not place in full sun or high light. In the wild Peperomia are tropical understory or forest floor plants. This means they grow best in bright shade to low light conditions.
~Peperomia will form inflorescences when happy but unless you are trying to self-pollinate, they can be removed to conserve energy for foliage production.
It was bigger than expected. One leaf died after being injured during transit but I can’t really blame anyone. Otherwise, plant is doing excellently and I love the tiny new leaves that was already on the plant.
This guy arrived a little rough when it arrived. Just about all of the leaves are wrinkled. After being in its new home for about 2 weeks, it's doing better. I look forward to watching it grow.
These plants are awesome!! This company is very impressive from start to finish!! My plants arrived packed with love and care in perfect condition!! I can’t recommend this company enough! I will definitely be back for more plants!! I love that they sell pet friendly plants and have a really nice selection!!
LOVED MY PLANT!! Arrived quickly in the time frame, the plant was VERY secure in its box and I received a beautiful, healthy, bigger and fuller than I had expected plant! Thank You Amanda who packed the plant.
If I was being recorded while opening this plant, everyone could see my excitement! This was the fullest 4 inch pot ever! Its so full the pot tips over! It’s STUNNING!!! I am so happy!!!
Great price, and packaged well. Minimal damage to plants upon arrival (compared to others I’ve ordered from). After a few days they perked right up. They’re bigger than I expected, so I have to get a bigger planter so I can merge them lol I’m very happy with my purchase.
It came out of the box a little sad, but after sitting outside with some sun and water, it has really turned into the lovely plant I hoped to have. Several new growth points were starting on arrival. Don't be surprised if it is drooping on arrival... just give it love and time, and it will prove to be the resilient plant it is known to be!
This was my first purchase from Gabriella plants. They were packed well & needed a few days to acclimate to their new environment. As you can see, the plants are both doing well & thriving. They are also beautiful.
My first purchase with this company! Took a week to come in. Beautiful leaves, of course one petal was broke but it happens with shipping. Got it for my mom for mother’s day and she absolutely loves it! Ive done made my second order and will be purchasing plenty more 😍
Great plant! Came in good condition, healthy, no pests. I've ordered multiple times from Gabriella Plants, and if there is ever an issue, which is very rare, their customer service is top-notch, so no worries there. They will always make things right. This was one of 8 plants I ordered with the latest order. Love them!
This plant was a bit wilted upon arrival but quickly rebounded.
Considering how tricky it can be to mail peperomia of this size-I’m very happy to have another Gabriella plant 🪴
Beautiful plant but it died within the month of delivery :( plant came very slightly out of the pot despite packing so I thought it would recover but it never did.
I was looking for this one all over here in the area, and couldn’t find it. Remember when I bought it, they were so many. I found it on the website and automatically, shopping bag! I’m in love with it, it was really a present for my husband, plant has been transitioned really well, babies are coming!
Very pleased with my purchase. Never a disappointment when receiving plants from Gabriella plants. Plants are always packaged with lots of TLC to ensure they arrive in perfect condition.
