Peperomia 'Red Margin'

Peperomia obtusifolia 'Red Margins'

Peperomia 'Red Margins' is a voluptuous houseplant celebrated for its thick, elongated oval-shaped leaves accented with a subtle tint of red along the edges—reminiscent of a swipe of red lipstick. Its succulent-like nature allows it to store water within its leaves, making it extremely low-maintenance and requiring watering only when the soil is nearly dry.

Thriving in moderate light or under grow lights, 'Red Margins' is an ideal deskmate and a perfect choice for beginners. Its striking foliage and self-sufficient watering needs make it a versatile addition to any indoor setting, whether on a desk, windowsill, or as part of a larger plant collection.

Peperomia Basic Care: Easy

Water: Allow the soil to dry out almost entirely—up to 5 inches deep—between watering. A watering schedule similar to that of succulents and cacti works well.

Light: It prefers medium to bright indirect light. Direct sunlight should be avoided, as it can cause leaf burn.

Soil/Drainage: Well-draining soil mixes designed for cacti and succulents are ideal, though they can tolerate a standard houseplant mix if they are careful not to overwater.

Temperature/Humidity: Thrives in average room temperature and humidity.

Order & Shipping Info:
-Plants ship in a grower's pot, fully rooted.
-We ship every Monday and Tuesday (excluding holidays) to avoid weekend delays.
-Our photos show what you can expect, but each plant is unique and may look slightly different upon arrival.
-Minor damage during shipping is entirely normal and should be expected, especially in extreme summer or winter temperatures. Don’t worry—damaged foliage can be trimmed away and will not affect the plant's root system or overall health.
-Hold off on watering if the soil is still moist, and wait 2-4 weeks before repotting or fertilizing. This patience will help your plant adjust smoothly without going into shock.
