DescriptionPeperomia obtusifolia is a cute little houseplant that is a great addition to your indoor garden. The baby rubber plant is an easy-going evergreen tropical plant that will happily adapt to standard indoor conditions. The Peperomia Obtusifolia (Baby Rubber Plant) has thick, deep green leaves and an upright stem. The Obtusifolia is one of the most popular species of the Peperomia genus, known for its resilience and relatively easy care. The Peperomia Obtusifolia needs bright, indirect light. If this plant is exposed to too much direct light, its leaves can start to develop a sunburn or “cook,” meaning the water in them over heats and causes the plant to get mushy. Well draining soil is best for this plant. An all-purpose potting mix for container plants should work great. Add some chunkier elements like orchid bark and coco coir chips to help with aeration. The Peperomia Obtusifolia likes to dry out between watering’s, wait until soil is dried out two-thirds of the way down into the pot before watering. pinch back stem tips to encourage bushier growth for a more attractive look. The easiest ways to propagate baby rubber plant are with stem or leaf cuttings.
