Peperomia 'Quito'

Botanical Name: Peperomia caperata 'Quito'

Common Names: Peperomia, Radiator Plant, Quito

Description: Peperomia Quito plant is a variety of peperomia, a genus and an evergreen perennial of flowering plants in the Piperaceae family. 

Peperomia plants are the ultimate low-maintenance houseplants—perfect for beginners and busy plant lovers alike! Hailing from the shady understory of South American rainforests, these little charmers thrive with minimal fuss.

They’re slow-growing, compact, and sometimes even mistaken for succulents thanks to their thick, water-storing leaves. But unlike true succulents, they prefer a bit more humidity and indirect light.

Care Tips:
Light: Bright, indirect light is best, but they’ll tolerate lower light too.

Water: Let the top inch of soil dry out before watering—too much water is their worst enemy.

Humidity: They enjoy a bit of moisture in the air but don’t need anything fancy.

Soil: Well-draining potting mix is key to keeping their roots happy.

Bonus: They’re non-toxic, making them great for pet-friendly homes!

Easy, adaptable, and oh-so-cute—Peperomia are the perfect addition to any plant collection!
