Peperomia caperata 'Rosso'®
Peperomia caperata 'Rosso'® is a compact peperomia with deeply textured, pointed leaves that are dark green on top and a rich red underneath. Its neat rosette form and contrasting colours make it a striking foliage plant for desks, windowsills, or mixed displays. The Peperomia caperata is a special plant in the Eden Collection. This plant is protected by cultivation rights and is an eye catcher because of its red colour on the underside of the leaf.
This variety performs well in smaller pots and thrives in warm, bright rooms with indirect light and water it when the soil feels dry. Its low-maintenance nature and ornamental foliage make it a favourite for modern interiors, adding colour and interest without taking up much space.
