This tropical plant from Venezuela is a semi-succulent, making it a plant that you water only once its soil is almost dry. She will prefer soil that is too dry rather than too wet, which could cause her roots to rot. She likes a bright place, but away from direct sunlight. It can be repotted at any time, but it likes to be cramped. Peperomia are plants with a small root system, so they do not grow very tall, and do not live very long. They sit well on a shelf.
