Peperomia obtusifolia - Baby Rubber Plant
Peperomia obtusifolia, also known as the Baby Rubber Plant, is a glossy-leaved charmer with thick, spoon-shaped foliage that gives it a lush, tropical vibe. Its compact size and easy-going nature make it perfect for shelves, desks, or bright windowsills, adding a fresh pop of green without taking up much space.
Plant Care
Light: Loves bright, indirect light but adapts well to medium light. Avoid prolonged direct sun, which can scorch leaves.
Watering: Let the top few centimetres of soil dry out between waterings. Its succulent-like leaves store moisture, so err on the side of underwatering rather than overwatering.
Temperature: Ideal range is 18–26°C. Keep above 15°C and away from draughts or cold windows in winter.
Potting: Thrives in A Sandy Loam mix for free-draining yet moisture-retentive conditions.
Hot tips: Wipe leaves occasionally to keep them glossy and dust-free. Rotate for even growth and avoid soggy soil to prevent root rot.
