r/peperomia

I just got home from college and see this thing and I have no idea what it is!

I am visiting SATX from Michigan and found this lovely peperomia baby. Can anyone assist with an ID? Thank you. 💚💚

Just showing off her new growth

I love this plant so much. I shared her recently and you all loved her too. The common name is red log Peperomia.

She was in need of a repot: just couldn’t stay hydrated. So I took a few cuttings and today they were ready so I sized her up and here she is.

I was about ready to chuck my watermelon pep in the compost. She had funky leaves, and not many of them and just wasn't growing robustly. I had her in the same spot as some other very happy peps getting the same treatment but she was not doing well. I moved her to a different spot and it got worse. On a last ditch effort I placed her here. The only difference is the light is more diffuse: further from grow lights and filtered by other plants. And she is making a come back.

My newest pep is soooo charming. Since coming out of quarantine and into her well lit new home she seems to be showing a tiny bit of variegation or mottling on her leaves. I just love the variety!!

Picked this up along with a couple others and they were all just labeled “peperomia caperata.” I know it’s not a pink lady because the pink only shows up in the veining instead of in the variegation on the leaves, but I can’t seem to find a match.

It lives under a Sansi bulb for 12 hours a day and I water when it’s dry

Brought her home like 3-4 weeks ago? Started looking a bit sad, so I repotted her, and now she looks extra sad 😔

Isn't she a beauty

My peperomia hope is going through it. She’s 2 years old and in the past like 6-8 months has started to look bleached and wrinkly. I use a moisture meter and water accordingly, like I always have. She was repotted in March for her 2nd birthday. She was originally in a shallow pot and is now in a deeper pot, per the recommendation of the plant shop I took her to. This is only happening to the top leaves, everything else is lush and green. She’s about 4-5 ft long. Does she need more nutrients? Is the grow light too bright? Is the water bad? Does she need a new pot? I genuinely don’t know what to do with her.

first flower of the season!

My beautiful Peperomia Carnival. The colors a magnificent in person.

Any ideas on the variety, as well as any care tips/if I should repot?

Never had peperomias, but hopefully they can be easily propagated.

limp, leggy, leaves dropping everywhere. this lives near to a south facing window, but on a shelf adjacent to it, not in front of it. this plant means a lot to me and i really want to save it!

It’s so tiny and cute!

So, I bought this peperomia and the leaves were flat, as they should be, but over time they started curling, becoming limp, and tearing easily. However, it is also growing several new leaves. What am I doing wrong with it? any tip?

Anyone ever seen this one before? Very nice coloring.
