Peperomia 'San Marino'

Peperomia caperata 'San Marino'

This compact peperomia is an ideal addition to large terrariums, showcasing tear-drop shaped leaves with deep, puckering ripples. Similar to the 'Rosso' variety but boasting lighter green foliage, its uniquely beautiful leaf undersides set it apart. It thrives in both medium and low light, making it versatile for a range of indoor settings.

Thanks to its succulent-like stems, 'San Marino' may appear droopy when overwatered, but it quickly perks up as the soil dries out. With a color palette that shifts from vibrant greens to subtle reds and silvery whites, this distinctive Peperomia effortlessly complements any decor style while adding a touch of natural elegance.

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.
