Peperomia hovaria requires relatively little care, making it perfect for almost any interior. For optimal growth, the following plant care tips apply:
Choose a location with bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight can burn the leaves and damage the hairs. Keep it out of direct midday sun or bright light. Water & Soil: Allow the top layer of soil to dry slightly before watering again. Overwatering can lead to root or stem rot . A well-draining potting soil or succulent mix is ideal.
Peperomia hovaria can survive 3 to 5 weeks without water, with soaking followed by thorough drainage being a suitable method for longer absences. Temperature & Humidity: An average room temperature is ideal (e.g., 18-26°C). The plant tolerates slightly drier air due to its succulent properties, but average humidity is still recommended. Additional tip from Araflora : For full and attractive growth, regularly trim or thin out the tips of stems. This encourages new growth and promotes a bushier appearance.
