Description

Common name and scientific name

Parallel Peperomia, Peperomia puteolata

Plant Type, Growth habit and size

Evergreen perennial

Sunlight requirements

Prefers bright, indirect light. In Singapore's tropical climate, protect the plant from intense, direct sunlight, especially during the hottest parts of the day. Partial shade or filtered light is ideal.

Pot Size

P85, Ø8.5cm x H7.5cm

Watering needs

Given the high humidity in Singapore, it's crucial to allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. While Peperomia puteolata likes consistently moist soil, be cautious not to overwater, as excessive moisture can lead to root rot.

Soil Type and pH

Well-draining potting mix with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0-7.0).

Humidity requirements

While Singapore typically has high humidity, you can further enhance the humidity around the plant by misting the leaves regularly. Consider placing a tray of water or using a humidifier if needed.

Fertilizer

In the tropical climate, growth may be more continuous. You can slightly increase the frequency of feeding, using a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer every 3-4 weeks during the growing season

Toxicity

Generally considered non-toxic to humans and pets.

Propagation methods

Easily propagated from stem cuttings.

Pruning requirements

Prune to maintain a compact shape and remove any yellow or damaged leaves.
