Spray water once in 2 weeks to moisten soil but be sure water does not pool up at the bottom of container which can cause rotting. Allow soil to dry between waterings.

Light

Bright indoor light or indirect sun. 6 hours to 8 hours

Temperature

Maintain temperatures between 18°C - 24°C. Avoid draughts as these can create undesirable temperature fluctuations. Consider giving your plant an occasional misting twice every week to maintain the optimum humidity level.

Description	Native to South America dwelling in rain forests, the Peperomia ferreyrae is a perennial epiphyte semi – succulent plant species that differs very much in its appearance to many other peperomia species. Their appearance would not seem to relate to other peperomias that display rounded leaves, but they’re closely related. As with other peperomias they require care similar to other succulent plants. Most conditions within a home in temperate regions should be fine to accomodate the plant. Humidity and light are important, and avoiding overwatering. Greenhouses, conservatories and windowsills are best suited places to grow this species.
