✨ Peperomia argyreia, known as Watermelon Peperomia, boasts unique foliage
resembling a watermelon's rind. Its dark green, fleshy leaves with silvery
stripes sit on slender, reddish stems, creating a compact, upright appearance.
Native to South America, it's perfect for desktops or small spaces. This
charming plant adds a touch of nature to any indoor collection.
🌿 Watermelon Peperomia Care Tips:
* Light: Bright, indirect light is best. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent leaf fading or burning. It tolerates medium light but grows more slowly.
* Watering: Water when the top inch of soil is dry. Use pots with drainage. Peperomias store water; overwatering is common.
* Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity. It adapts to average indoor levels but appreciates a boost, especially in dry seasons.
* Soil: Use a light, well-draining potting mix. Perlite or orchid bark helps prevent soggy roots. Avoid heavy soils.
* Temperature: Ideal range: 65–80°F (18–27°C). Keep it away from cold drafts or below 50°F (10°C).
* Fertilizing: Feed monthly during spring and summer with a diluted balanced fertilizer. No feeding needed in winter.
* Pruning: Prune leggy growth to keep it compact. Remove dead leaves at the base to encourage new growth and tidy appearance.
Peperomia argyreia is a showstopper with its bold, patterned leaves! It's just
as easy to care for as it is beautiful.
