Peperomia Rosso

Placement and Lighting: Position your Peperomia Rosso in a spot that receives plenty of bright, filtered light. An East or West-facing window is ideal. Avoid direct afternoon sun as it can scorch the foliage and cause the colors to fade. ### Watering Protocol: These plants are semi-succulent and store water in their leaves. Water only when the top 50% of the soil has dried out. When watering, saturate the soil thoroughly but ensure all excess water drains out of the pot. Never let the plant sit in standing water. ### Soil and Potting: Use a well-aerating potting medium. A mix of two parts peat moss and one part perlite works perfectly to prevent soil compaction and facilitate drainage. ### Temperature: Maintain a stable environment between 65-75 degrees Fahrenheit. Avoid cold drafts from windows or air conditioning vents. ### Seasonal Care: Growth will slow significantly during the winter. Reduce watering frequency and ensure the plant is not exposed to temperatures below 50 degrees Fahrenheit. ### Troubleshooting: If leaves become mushy or turn yellow, it is likely a sign of overwatering. If the leaves appear shriveled, the plant may be thirsty or the humidity is too low.
