Commonly known as Pepper Face, or Peperomia Obtusifolia, is native to the tropical regions of Florida, Mexico, and the Caribbean. The round, waxy, variegated foliage is tipped with a thin red outline, making the foliage POP! This plant requires a little more sun than their fully green counterparts, but beyond that, there’s nothing too specific you’ll need to worry about with this plant.
Being that it’s from a tropical environment, it thrives in high humidity, warm temperatures, slightly dry soil, medium to bright indirect light, and will grow up to 2 ft. tall indoors. This makes them great to place on a desktop, bookcase, cubby, or small nook in your home that is well-lit, but doesn’t get direct light! Over time this plant may drop some of its leaves, but don’t be alarmed, this is just a natural occurrence in the plant’s life cycle.
