This listing is for a Peperomia Argyreia Watermelon Peperomia in a 4" pot, already rooted and actively growing in its own container.

Important Notes for Peperomia Owners

• 💧 Water less than you think — the thick, fleshy leaves of the Watermelon Peperomia store moisture just like a succulent. Overwatering is the fastest way to run into trouble; always wait until the top inch or two of soil is dry before reaching for the watering can
• 🌿 Slow and steady wins the race — Peperomias are not fast growers, but they are long lived, reliable, and consistently beautiful over many years with minimal effort
• 🌸 Watch for flower spikes — happy, mature plants occasionally send up slender, tail-like flower spikes; a charming quirk that signals a very content plant
