Prone to root rot if overwatered. Care & Planting: Peperomia tetraphylla 'String of Turtles' is a slow-growing, succulent-leaved trailer prized for its patterned foliage. Let the soil dry out between waterings — its thick leaves store moisture and are susceptible to rot in soggy soil. Provide bright indirect light for the best leaf coloration and compact growth.
