CARE INSTRUCTIONS

LIGHT:  Peperomia Cupid does well in medium to bright indirect light. Its variegated leaves (green with cream edges) hold their color best in brighter conditions. It can tolerate lower light but may revert to more green. Avoid direct sun.
WATER:  This peperomia stores water in its thick leaves — allow the soil to dry out between waterings. Overwatering is the most common mistake; when in doubt, wait. Water thoroughly, then allow to drain completely.
SOIL & POT:  Use a well-draining potting mix; a cactus blend mixed with standard potting mix works well. Always choose a pot with drainage holes. Peperomia Cupid is well-suited to hanging baskets, where its trailing stems can cascade freely.
SEASONAL TIPS:  Growth is slowest in winter — water even less frequently during this period. The trailing stems can be pruned to control length; cuttings root easily in water or soil.

HOW THIS PLANT GROWS
Peperomia Cupid is a trailing variety with heart-shaped, fleshy leaves in green with creamy yellow margins. Stems trail and cascade gracefully, making it an excellent choice for hanging baskets or a high shelf where the vines can drape.

GROW JOYFULLY
Peperomia Cupid is the perfect low-maintenance trailer — give it a hanging spot with good light, water it less than you think it needs, and it will reward you with cheerful, cascading growth.
