Peperomia Caperata Frost (S)

The Peperomia Caperata is traditionally found in the rainforests of Brazil, meaning that in the home they would be best suited to similar conditions - humid with high temperatures. Because of the thick canopy of trees in rainforests that block the light, the Peperomia Caperata would not enjoy direct sunlight. Try not to overwater and a sign of this will be black stems and lower leaves which are direct consequences of soggy soil. Another way to fight this is to make sure the container you use has enough drainage holes to get rid of any excess water.
