If you’re looking for a delightful hanging plant that’s a breeze to maintain, your hunt is over. This is all about successfully caring for and growing a Peperomia Hope.
These plants are known to be slow growers, especially in lower light conditions. This plant looks the best in moderate to high light. Mine is growing in all-day bright indirect light.
The best way to water this plant is simple. When the soil is dry, water it again. I water mine in a 6? pot every seven to ten days in the warmer months and every fourteen days or so in the winter.
This tropical plant loves high humidity. That being said, this plant is mostly adaptable regarding humidity. Even though this plant would prefer high humidity levels, it handles the drier air in our homes like a champ.
I use a mix in a 1:1 ratio of good quality potting soil formulated for houseplants to DIY Succulent and Cactus Mix. This ensures the soil mixture has good drainage and helps to prevent soggy soil, which can lead to root rot.
You can propagate via stem cuttings or leaf cuttings. I propagate peperomias in succulent and cactus mix (a light mix is best so the roots can easily emerge and grow), but it can also be done in water.
