Peperomia Raindrop

Peperomia polybotrya, Raindrop Peperomia. Teardrop Peperomia

Peperomia Raindrop is beloved for its unique, glossy, teardrop-shaped leaves that resemble raindrops gently resting on stems. Its deep green, slightly waxy foliage adds a fresh, modern look to desks, shelves, and small plant displays. Compact and easy to manage, Raindrop Peperomia fits beautifully into apartments, offices, and any space that needs a touch of natural charm without demanding much room.

This plant is an excellent choice for anyone seeking a striking yet low-maintenance indoor green companion. Peperomia Raindrop flourishes in bright, indirect light but tolerates medium light with slower growth. It prefers a well-aerated, loam- or peat-based potting mix to keep roots healthy and requires moderate watering. With its adaptable nature and minimal care needs, it’s perfect for beginners and busy plant lovers alike looking for a reliable, attractive addition.

Care Instructions:

Light Requirements: Prefers bright, indirect light for best growth and leaf sheen; tolerates medium light but avoid harsh direct sun.
Soil Needs: Requires a well-draining loam- or peat-based mix with orchid bark and perlite for aeration.
Watering: Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry; avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.
Humidity: Prefers moderate humidity; mist occasionally or provide a humidifier in dry indoor air.
Fertilizing: Feed monthly in spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength.
Pruning: Remove yellow or damaged leaves to maintain appearance and encourage healthy new growth.
Repotting: Repot every 2–3 years or when roots crowd the container to refresh soil and promote growth.

Please note: This plant comes in its grower’s nursery pot, ready for you to place in your favorite decorative pot at home. The pot in the picture is not included.
