Peperomia 'Schumi - Red'

Peperomia 'Schumi'

Common Names: Rubber plant, Radiator plant

Peperomias are an all around excellent plant to take home - low maintenance (good for new plant caretakers), low-light tolerant as their natural habitat is the rainforest understory, and non-toxic to your animal friends! In addition to these stellar qualities, peperomia come in a variety of shapes and sizes, so you'll likely find one that is especially interesting to you. 'Schumi' has similar qualities to its relatives with rounded leaves, a pinched base, and a ripple pattern outwards to the edges of the leaves, and it really shines with its rich and satiny ruby red sheen.

Light: Shade Tolerant

Water: Occasional

Ease: Easy Breezy

Pet Friendly: Yes

Care: Peperomias are slow-growing and like to be slightly root bound, so you don't need to repot unless you see roots creeping out of the drainage holes of your pot.
