Peperomia caperata are fairly easy to maintain as house plants. They don't grow very tall and have vibrant colors that last. They also respond well to being watered by placing them in a tray and watering from below.
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.
My plant arrived at its new home in perfect condition. It is beautiful and happy and it definitely brought a smile to my face! Thank you Gabriella Plants!
Great looking plant. Despite the couple bugs which is MY fault(from keeping it on my shaded porch) it’s had zero effect on the plant. I ordered a highly rated pest spray and then I will move her back indoors. Customer service, especially Sarah has been great with responding in a timely manner! Looking to add more to our GROWING collection!
Such a beautiful plant! Everything came so well packaged too. So full I was able to separate and try one in leca. I will be reordering again. Customer service is top notch! Thank you for becoming my go to plant supplier.
I purchased several peperomias and ficus to make table centerpieces. The 20+ plants were shipped perfectly and arrived damage free, pest free and beautiful. I have ordered many times from Gabriella and they have best in class customer services and their prices are reasonable.
This plant has adapted so well after being shipped in freezing cold weather. I’m obsessed with the foliage, the pictures don’t do it justice! I highly recommend purchasing this plant, it’s unlike anything I own!
It’s beautiful! The packaging was great and this little one arrived in great shape. It’s a healthy and happy plant. Thanks Gabriella Plants! I’ll be buying more.
Plenty of large leaves and babies. Some leaves were ‘burnt’ when I received it, ie the tips and edges were dry and crispy, so I’m keeping the plant a bit further from my windows to help it get back in shape. Minimal leaf loss considering this peperomia is hard to ship.
I always have full confidence my pants from Gabriella’s will arrive well packaged, healthy and pest free. Gabriella prices are also very reasonable. Look at this beauty after only 2 weeks in my care. Absolutely thriving!!
I’ve been ordering from other sellers. I’ve heard of Gabriella’s but assumed the price would be insane. I was just enough to get this plant. Couldn’t be happier, they never disappoint. The weather protection isn’t a hidden gem to find like urban sprouts. I’ve never had to contact customer service. This is my 4th winter shipment.
I do get protection, so worth it. I think the care that goes Into shipping protects enough but for 6$ you have a guarantee. Just to take that stress off.
I’m in love with all the plants I got from you. The box arrived sooner than expected and perfectly packed. The plants look like they have been in really good care and they’re showing it. Thank you Gabriellaplants :)
It’s been a month since I received my frost. It is huge in person and continue to thrive in my 6” pot. I’m so tempted to buy another one bc it’s so beautiful! Thank you Shane and the team!
This little plant has lovely, silvery leaves that almost look like glitter. It arrived fast and in excellent condition. It was a perfect size for the cost and overall, a great value.
