Peperomia Polybotrya - Raindrop Peperomia Introduction

Peperomias are famous for their magnificent leaves and few are more unique and charming than the Peperomia Polybotrya, which for obvious reasons is also known as the raindrop peperomia. Not only are the shape of its leaves a curiosity but it;s dark green shiny leaves are also stunning.

 

Peperomia Polybotrya - Raindrop Peperomia Lighting & Position

Peperomia will thrive in a medium light position but can also tolerate lower light conditions. They can handle small amounts of direct light indoors as well.  

 

Peperomia Polybotrya - Raindrop Peperomia Watering

Peperomia are semi-succulent so allow the top few cms of soil to dry out between watering. To monitor this, you can use your finger to poke into the top 5 cm of potting mix and feel the soil moisture level before watering. If it feels wet, let it dry out for longer. Over watering can lead to fungal issues or root rot. If the leaves are drooping or curling at the edges you might need to water a little more. Try watering once a week, using just enough water to start to see some draining from the bottom of the pot. During winter, when the plant isn’t in an active growing phase you should reduce watering frequency. 

With all plants, drainage is essential. Ensure that whatever vessel your plant is in, there are sufficient holes in the bottom to allow excess water to freely drain from the pot and away from the plant’s roots.

Peperomia Polybotrya - Raindrop Peperomia Extra Tips

Once a month you can wipe down the plants leaves using a damp cloth to clean away any dust that has collected and may be preventing the leaves from breathing. It’s completely normal for older leaves, typically around the base of the plant, to fade in colour or brown off as they age. Prune off any damaged or dying leaves using a sharp pair of scissors or secateurs so that the plant can put more energy into the newer, healthier growth. 

 

Peperomia Polybotrya - Raindrop Peperomia Toxicity
