Peperomia Hope 6cm pot

☀️ Light

• Prefers bright, indirect light — near an east or west window is perfect.

• Tolerates medium light but may grow slower and get leggy.

• Avoid strong midday sun, which can scorch the leaves.

💧 Water

• Let the top 2–3 cm (1 inch) of soil dry out before watering again.

• Water thoroughly, then allow excess to drain — it’s better to underwater than overwater.

• In winter, water less often.

• Leaves will wrinkle slightly when it’s thirsty.

🌡️ Temperature & Humidity

• Thrives in 18–26°C (65–80°F).

• Keep away from cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.

• Prefers moderate humidity, but does fine in normal indoor conditions.

🌱 Soil

• Use a loose, well-draining mix, such as:

  • 2 parts peat or coco coir

  • 1 part perlite or orchid bark

• Avoid heavy soil that stays wet too long.

🍽️ Feeding

• Feed once a month during spring and summer with a balanced, diluted houseplant fertilizer.

• Stop feeding in autumn and winter.

🌿 Growth & Propagation

• Naturally trailing or cascading, perfect for shelves or hanging pots.

• Easy to propagate via stem cuttings — root them in water or soil.

⚠️ Common Issues

• Yellow leaves → overwatering.

• Wrinkled leaves → underwatering.

• Leggy growth → not enough light.
