      Yeah that is cool - such a great hobby to grow and maintain and work with plants of any kind. I could be having a crappy day, and just working with a few plants, just brings me out of any funk. That's why I have a few plants at the office in the window.

    Thank you for this more in-depth talk about peps and their care! I love them also (yours have so much personality) but they are the plant I struggle with most (Except for my very small tetragona- thAt one is doing great. ) I’m pretty sure my ruby cascade is beyond hope (I think I misread its “language”). It too started developing tiny leaves in my northeast facing window. I’d be very interested in how your experimentation goes with your Quadrangularis. Love your hoffmanii and don’t think it’s plain at all. Thanks again for this- it was great to get more nuanced info and I’ll keep plugging along with my peps and watching. 😊

I do love that they tell you when they need a drink, that is so nice, I use to be an overwaterer, but not any more, and that is probably why I have so many more plants these days. Thank you again, I just love plants so much they take me to my happy place, see you soon, bye for now.

    I have Peperomia Incana! Found it at my local big box store! It’s super big and lush and is in a hanging pot! Part of a stem actually fell off and I propagated that stem and some leaves in soil, they actually rooted so fast and grow so well!!! I love this plant😍

  • @edcipriani8873
    @edcipriani8873 Před 3 lety

    Great video, your enthusiasm and knowledge are awesome. Peperomias are such cool plants. I am trying to track down P. Caperata, with darker or red-tinted leaves. Great collection. I really like Hoffmannii - the one you have in your collection looks so healthy. I have always had bad luck growing any plant that has really small leaves. It reminds me of Helxine (baby tears) or Pilea-Creeping Charlie, another plant I like but have not had good luck with them. It seems that Peperomias can tolerate being grown inside better especially during winter with lower humidity.

Any care tips from the pro? I try the taco test on it but feel like I must be overwatering when the new growth dies off at the ends 😞 please send help! 🙏🏻

    I have a peperomia angulata, peperomia piccolo banda, and a peperomia ruby cascade. The best care I've found is to keep them in medium-high light and only bottom water when completely dry (which often is 2 weeks).

    I've been in love with peperomia since 2019, especially with watermelon. I don't know why. But they never fail to make my heart beat fast. Well, as of now, I have ten varieties. All of them are common. Nonetheless, I super duper love them all! Anyway, your eyes are gorgeous!

  • @sophieisabelle3762
    @sophieisabelle3762 Před 4 lety

    Know this is an older video, but super useful for me. I have a peperomia rotundifolia that just hates me. Can’t get the watering right, keeps dropping leaves in huge clumps (while simultaneously putting out new growth) and now seems to have mealybugs. Succulent plants are my jam and used to have a large collection, but I just recently got back into houseplants and figured semi succulent plants like peperomias would be easy for me. Nope, both mine are a disaster.

    @Hello_Fuckers0 Před 3 lety

    I'm becoming addicted to peperomias!! I got 2, 6 inch pots of obtusifolia not knowing wtf a peperomia even was lol but I think I currently have 8 different peperomias, doubles of a couple. I picked up what I think is a little polybotrya from my local Lowe's today after work. It was so dry, it floated when I soaked it. The 4 leaves still on it perked up noticeably within an hour of getting it home. I know it's happier because of your "taco test" 🤘🏼

    I have a peperomia red ecuador that was given to me and It’s so hard to find information on, I’ve never seen them at any nursery, and I didn’t even know the name of it until watching this video.

    Does the hoffmanni have small green/white flowers that seem to be an exstension of the top leaf clusters?

    How do you keep your pep quadrangularis sitting so well in the soil? Mine is a small bunch and i feel like its so top heavy that it falls out when soil is dry or if u accidentally brush byit? but i dont want to dig it in too deep cos when i water it, the water will get on the lower leaves?
