$10.00

The Peperomia Obtusifolia, also known as the Baby Rubber Plant, is a compact and visually appealing houseplant with thick, glossy, dark green leaves. Its succulent-like texture and upright growth make it a great choice for adding a touch of nature to desks, shelves, or any cozy corner in your home. With its easy care requirements, it is an ideal plant for both beginners and experienced plant enthusiasts.

Key Features:

  • Height: Typically grows to around 8-12 inches in height, making it a perfect small indoor plant.

  • Leaf Shape: Thick, round, and glossy green leaves with a smooth, rubbery texture.

  • Hardiness: Low-maintenance, pest-resistant, and known for its air-purifying properties.

  • Pot Size: 4-inch nursery pot, ideal for small spaces and tabletops.

Care Instructions:

  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate low light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight, which can cause the leaves to burn.

  • Watering: Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil are dry. Be sure to avoid letting the plant sit in water, as this can lead to root rot. It is better to underwater than overwater.

  • Temperature: Thrives in temperatures between 60-85°F (16-29°C). Protect from cold drafts and avoid placing it in areas with temperature extremes.

  • Soil: Well-draining, light potting mix is ideal. A mix designed for houseplants or one that includes peat moss and perlite will work well. Ensure the pot has drainage holes.

  • Fertilizing: Feed once a month during the growing season (spring through summer) with a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer. Reduce feeding in the fall and winter when the plant is not actively growing.

  • Repotting: Repot when the plant outgrows its pot or every 1-2 years to refresh the soil and give it more room to grow.

Tips: The Peperomia Obtusifolia is a very forgiving plant, making it a great choice for beginners. It’s drought-tolerant and requires little maintenance, but do be cautious not to overwater. A light misting of the leaves every few weeks can help maintain humidity, but this plant thrives in normal indoor air. Keep in a spot with indirect light for the best results.
