Scientific Name: Peperomia obtusifolia 'Albo-Marginata'

A Note on Size

The nursery pot size refers to the diameter of the pot the plant is growing in and does not indicate the overall height of the plant. Individual plants can vary in height, shape and fullness.

Plant Care

Allow the soil to dry out slightly between watering. Peperomias store moisture in their leaves, so they don't enjoy sitting in wet soil. Give it a warm spot with plenty of bright, filtered light and rotate the pot occasionally for even growth.

Make It Complete

Plants are sold in their nursery pots, with cover pots available separately. A simple neutral cover pot lets the variegated foliage do the talking, while a colourful pot can bring out the creamy leaf margins.

We also have Plant Care options including plant food, neem and water meters to help keep your new plant happy and healthy.
