Peperomia Obtusifolia 'Marble'

The Variegated Peperomia (Peperomia obtusifolia 'Marble') is a cheerful, compact houseplant known for its thick, glossy leaves splashed with creamy whites, soft yellows, and rich greens. Often called the “baby rubber plant,” it’s a hardy and low-maintenance tropical native that adds a bright, fresh look to desks, shelves, and small spaces. Its upright growth and easy-care nature make it perfect for beginners and collectors alike

Key Features:

Size: Grows up to 8–12 inches tall and 8–12 inches wide, making it an ideal compact plant for smaller spaces.

Growth: A slow to moderate grower, forming a neat, bushy mound of foliage.

Pet Friendliness:

The plant is pet-friendly!  It is non-toxic to cats and dogs.

Care Instructions:

Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate moderate light. Avoid harsh direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.

Watering: Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. Peperomias prefer slightly dry conditions over consistently wet soil.

Humidity: Prefers average indoor humidity, but appreciates a bit of extra humidity in dry environments.

Temperature: Grows best in temperatures between 18–27°C. Protect from drafts and temperatures below 10°C.

Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix, such as one designed for succulents or houseplants.

Fertilizer: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4–6 weeks during spring and summer. Feeding can be reduced in fall and winter.

Pruning: Trim any leggy stems to maintain a full, compact shape.
