Peperomia / Baby Rubber Plant (Peperomia obtusifolia) — Live Plant in Gold Mini Round Planter

Peperomia obtusifolia, the Baby Rubber Plant, is native to the Caribbean, Florida and Mexico. Its thick, glossy leaves — often marbled with creamy white to light-green edges — store water, making it wonderfully forgiving.

Why you'll love it:
• Thick, glossy, variegated foliage that stays neat and compact
• Stores water in its leaves — very forgiving of missed waterings
• Fits beautifully in any room

Good to know:
• Grows slowly — stays tidy and compact
• Use a planter with drainage to prevent waterlogging

• Light: tolerates low, indirect and bright light (avoid harsh direct sun)
• Water: keep compost lightly moist; water when the top inch of soil feels dry; avoid overwatering
• Humidity/Temp: normal room conditions suit it well
• Feeding: light feeder — needs few nutrients; a weak feed occasionally is plenty
• Soil: peat-based mix, rich in organic matter, well-draining

• Why are the leaves dropping or going soft? Usually overwatering — let the soil dry more between waterings and ensure the pot drains.

• Natural variation:
  Plants are living products. Height, leaf count, colour, and form will vary from the photographs shown. Images are representative of the size grade you're ordering, not the exact plant you'll receive.
• Transit Condition and acclimatization:
  Some leaf drop, yellowing, or wilting is normal after shipping and is not considered damage. Plants typically recover within 7–14 days with correct care.
• Care responsibility and delivery conditions
  Once delivered, plant health depends on light, watering, and placement. We can't accept responsibility for decline after delivery.
