  • It's the 2019 revival of "Plant One On Me" AND it's Valentine's Day, so I thought I'd go over my favorite genus of plants-Peperomia. In this video I highlight Peperomia natural history, like where they're from and how they grow; care tips for succulent and semi-succulent Peperomia; and even touch upon Peperomia propagation. Some varieties featured here include popular ones like Peperomia obtusifolia, Peperomia caperata-and less common ones like Peperomia dolabriformis, Peperomia prostrata, Peperomia incana, and more.
    If you really want to nerd out, then you'll have to tune into the next couple episodes, which will go over some of the Peperomia that I have around my home.
    If this video was helpful-give it a thumb's up!
    Oh, the wardrobe:
    - Organic cotton dress by my designer friend of BIRD in Australia. She does all her own prints.
    - Belt by Christian Siriano, using handmade bark, sourced from the second company I co-created: www.lesouk.co

    She collates her Peperomia. That's why she's the queen. How I've missed her! 👑😊💕

    I got my first peperomia polybotrya today and of course I had to turn to your channel for tips on how to take care of it. I love that you give interesting facts about its family too and where you can find them in nature, etc!

      @ByKristinaStudio Před 5 lety +1

      What is the best way in your opinion to propagate peperomia prostrata? If you propagate it by laying it on the soil, should the soil stay moist or rather dry? Thanks for your help!

    I'm so glad you are back! I love learning about the many houseplants from you. I never thought of using a better draining potting mix with bark along with the chunkier perlite on my plants that don't like "wet feet." I always learn something from you! Thanks for all your efforts to make us all more informed.

    So glad you are back, and you talk about peperomia, they are my fav too! I still have difficulty to figure out the watering, sometimes overwater sometimes underwater, I killed about 5 during this winter! But I’ll never give up, I have about 10 currently, and will acquire more for sure! X

    @gypsyh2690 Před 5 lety

    Thankyou again!! Loved this video, as I've been starting to think about adding a few peperomia varieties to my collection! Thank you for the brief plant backgrounds too, makes it so much easier to know what varieties to go for because we live in a pretty harsh zone. We're in WA, in Australia so I'm always pushing plants to the extremes; seeing how much they will tolerate too before needing more attention. I've found; it is also amazing how much a plant can differentiate from another that's the exact same species all due to the soils and humidity of the area, you wouldn't even guess they were the same haha.

    Seriously superb video, Summer! So glad you're back. You have a divine way of informing without over-complicating. I feel knowledgeable and capable after watching your videos. I'm fairly new to indoor gardening after moving from my limited light apt in Manhattan to now a house with lots more natural light in Colorado and your videos have truly equipped me with a deeper understanding of plant species that help me keep them, not just alive, but thriving in my home. Can't thank you enough and I look forward to where your channel takes me next! ❤🌿☘🍀🌱

    I’ve found the first peperomia yesterday and didn’t buy them because I needed to come back to your videos to learn where I need to put them in my house first. I have a meditation room I’d love to situate them in but it’s a dry and lower light space. I’m looking forward to learning how to care for them because I was so excited I found two variations because of you!

    I want to show this to my sister sometime in good spirit... She recently lost a peperomia she's cared for for over a year in her tiny basement apartment. It was actually growing until she had to move it to another home for a bit. So many factors there: could have been different light, heat, and adjusting watering habits to its' new place. I hope she doesn't give up hope growing them!

    Hi from Puerto Rico 😃🌱 I'm very happy that I found a CZcams channel where I can learn more about plants; I love nature and mostly plants: My favorite are, hanging, succulents, red/violet stems and medicinal.
    In the month of April, I went for a walk with my father-in-law and I took a cutting from a strange plant growing from a rock. I thought " ... this is going to be a difficult one to find out ..." No one could tell me at least the common name ... I planted it and it is happly living in my backyard 🧡
    Thanks to you I fell in love with peperomias and today I randomly found this episode "I 💙 peperomias" and GUESS WHAT!!?? Is a Peperomia blanda 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
    thanks for charging so much info 🙏🌱🧡💚💚🌱

    I found you tonight via an Huffpost article link. Subscribed before watching because I discovered the name of the plant that fills my house! It's the variegated peperomia you have in the 'breast vase.' it's a funny story how I went from NO plants to a jungle of these. I was working as a personal trainer in 2000 at a gym with no windows. Suddenly my boss swiped the tiny, sad plant on her metal desk into a trash can. "I give up on this thing! It's been almost dead for a year!" I, who anthropomorphize everything, rescued it out of pity and took it home. It settled right in and grew like crazy. Whenever my cats or kids broke a piece off, I stuck it in water, waited for roots, and in this way 20 yrs passed. I've given many away, several are quite large, some have grown into and around and through plant stands, and that 2" trashed plant has more than shown its gratitude - yet until tonight I never knew its name. Thanks!

  • @edwardlittlefield447
    @edwardlittlefield447 Před 4 lety

    Yes it did give me the confidence to try growing some peps again. Truthfully, though, I have never been able to grow peperomias. However, I think that with what you have taught me in this lesson that I will try some of the succulent species. Thanks again and remember that what you are doing is a very valuable thing! Keep doing what you do!!!🌹🌴🌵🌺🌷🌻☀️🌈

    Great video! You got me hooked ever since your visit to 'Steve's Leaves'. He is my go to guy for Pep's just added my 15th to my collection for all the reasons you mentioned. One Pep is really giving me heartache "Peperomia pereskiifolia" I either water too little or too much, so I purchased a water gauge but I am still not sure when to give her a drink, do I wait until she droops. Hope you had a nice break sure did miss you.

    • @summerrayneoakes

    I watched this video with the resident Peperomia that has a flower spike. We are both looking forward to the next video. I am so looking forward to this current series.
