A visually intriguing house plant, the Watermelon Peperomia's striped, glossy, saucer-like leaves are nothing short of unique.
These South American evergreens dwell on the forest floor receiving dappled sunlight throughout the day.
Peperomia Argyreia stay relatively compact making them a distinct and appealing addition to displays of indoor greenery.
Care
Light
Watermelon Peperomias prefer moderate to bright indirect sunlight. Brighter conditions will help your plant maintain their variegated pattern.
Water
These plants are succulent-like, storing water in their leaves for later use. Water when the soil dries out entirely.
Tips
Due to their compact form these plants do not need to be repotted regularly, and actually prefer to be somewhat pot-bound.
Child & Pet Friendly
These plants are non-toxic and are part of our Child and Pet Friendly Collection.
Size
Your Watermelon Peperomia currently lives in a (12cm diameter, 9cm height) nursery pot.
