Description
Peperomia 'Rosso', more correctly known as Peperomia 'Eden Rosso', is an eye-catcher because of its red color on the underside of the leaves and deeply grooved glossy green leaves.
On average, this plant reaches up to 8’ inches both in height and width. During the blooming stage, it develops dark-green leaves that take the shape of a heart. A mature leaf would roughly be about 1 to 2 inches long. The leaves of the Rosso Peperomia have deeply-rooted veins and are attached to stalks with a thick-red tone.
Environment
Keep in indirect sunlight. Any window besides South facing ones should work well. Generally an easy care plant, the Peperomia can become leggy if not given enough sun
It needs plenty of air around the roots, hence a relatively loose soil with good drainage would be ideal.
Landscape Uses
Kitchens, Bathrooms , Greenhouse & Terrarium
