Peperomia caperata 'Red' - Red Ripple Peperomia

Peperomia caperata 'Red', also known as Red Ripple Peperomia, is a textured little gem with deep burgundy-purple, heart-shaped leaves and striking ripples that catch the light. Compact, non-fussy, and pet safe, it’s perfect for desks, shelves, or anywhere that needs a low-maintenance splash of gothic glam.

Plant Care
Light:
Loves bright, indirect light, but handles medium light just fine. Too much direct sun can fade its rich colour.

Watering:
Let the top few centimetres of soil dry out before watering. It stores water in its stems and roots, so don’t overdo it — less is more.

Temperature:
Happy in 18–26°C, and keep above 15°C. Avoid draughts and temperature dips.

Potting:
Thrives in our A Sandy Loam mix — lightweight and well-draining for a healthy root system.

Hot tips:
This plant likes to be slightly root-bound, so don’t rush to repot. Rotate regularly for even growth, and avoid letting water sit in the crown.

Pet Friendly: Yes! 🐾
