    $15.00

    Peperomia puteolata, commonly known as the Parallel Peperomia or Radiator Plant, is a compact, trailing plant prized for its striking foliage. Its elongated, lance-shaped leaves are dark green with bold, parallel white or light green stripes running along their length, giving the plant its distinctive and elegant appearance. The stems are often reddish or pinkish, adding a subtle contrast to the vibrant leaves.

     

    Care Guidelines:

     

    1. Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate medium light but avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.

     

     

    2. Watering: Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so ensure the pot has adequate drainage.

     

     

    3. Humidity: Prefers average to slightly higher humidity levels. It adapts well to typical indoor conditions but appreciates occasional misting or a pebble tray in drier climates.

     

     

    4. Soil: Requires a well-draining potting mix, such as one with peat and perlite, to prevent waterlogging.

     

     

    5. Temperature: Thrives in temperatures between 18-24°C (65-75°F). Protect it from cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.

     

     

    6. Fertilizer: Feed with a balanced, diluted houseplant fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).

     

     

     

    Growth Tips:

     

    Peperomia puteolata has a trailing growth habit, making it ideal for hanging baskets or cascading over shelves.

     

    Prune lightly to maintain its shape and encourage bushier growth.

     

     

    Placement:

     

    This Peperomia is perfect for desks, shelves, or hanging planters, where its unique striped foliage can be displayed prominently. Its low-maintenance nature and stunning appearance make it an excellent choice for beginners and experienced plant enthusiasts alike.
