The Peperomia genus has over 1000 species, but only a dozen or so make for good houseplants. The Peperomia caperata is one of them. Known for its heart-shaped, deeply puckered leaves, which range in color from rich green to hues of red or silver-gray, depending on variety. Occasionally the Ripple Peperomia will produce thin, cream colored flower stalks. Generally an easy care plant, the Peperomia can become “leggy” if not given enough sun.
 
PLANT CARE
• Light: Low to bright, indirect light
• Water: Prefers light waterings, evenly moist soil with good drainage in warm seasons - never soggy soil
• Considerations: Prefers warm environments inside and adaptable for nearly any situation, tolerates a range of humidity levels
