Peperomia - Bottle garden / terrarium plant
peperomia
Compact and slow growing, peperomias make ideal candidates for terrariums and bottle gardens where space is limited. In the wild they are found colonising the floors of tropical rainforests - or nestling into the crooks of tree branches further up into the canopy. This plant is sent out as an unnamed and unlabelled peperomia, so the plant you receive may be a different variety to the one in the photo.
Please note that the plant comes in a nursery pot as standard, unless a decorative pot cover is included as an option.

How to care for Peperomia Bottle garden / terrarium plant:
Position in bright or moderate indirect light—avoid direct sunlight, as the patterned leaves can scorch. This houseplant thrives in a well-draining potting mix and prefers to dry out slightly between waterings: water when the soil is nearly dry, but never let the crown sit in water.
Ideal room temperatures are around 18-24°C (64-75°F), though it can tolerate down to about 10°C (50°F); avoid drafts. Though it tolerates normal household humidity, slightly elevated humidity will benefit it. Feed once or twice during the growing season with a half-strength balanced fertiliser.
