Peperomia Cupid

Botanical Name: Peperomia 'Cupid'

Common Name(s): Cupid Peperomia

Peperomia Cupid is a charming and compact houseplant known for its unique, heart-shaped leaves that have a soft, velvety texture. The leaves are typically a vibrant green, sometimes with hints of red or pink at the edges, adding to its attractive appearance. This small, trailing plant grows to about 6-10 inches in height and is perfect for hanging baskets or as a cascading accent in containers or on shelves.

Cupid Peperomia thrives in bright, indirect light, which helps maintain its vibrant color and promotes healthy growth. It prefers well-draining soil and should be watered only when the top inch of soil feels dry, as it is sensitive to overwatering and prone to root rot. While it can tolerate average indoor humidity levels, it will thrive in higher humidity, especially in warmer environments.

Air Purifying Qualities: Like many Peperomias, Peperomia Cupid helps improve indoor air quality by absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen, contributing to a fresher indoor atmosphere.

Note: Peperomia Cupid is non-toxic to pets, making it a safe, pet-friendly option for homes with cats and dogs. As always, it's good to monitor pets to ensure they don't nibble on the leaves.

Care Insights & Expert Tips

  1. Fertilize sparingly: Feed your Peperomia Cupid with a diluted, balanced liquid fertilizer once or twice a year during the spring and summer. Too much fertilizer can burn the roots.
  2. Repot carefully: Repot your Peperomia Cupid only when it becomes root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix.
  3. Avoid overwatering: Overwatering is the most common cause of death for peperomias. Allow the soil to dry out completely before watering again.
  4. Protect from cold drafts & pests: Peperomias are sensitive to cold drafts. Place them away from drafty windows and doors. Additionally, keep an eye out for common houseplant pests like mealybugs and spider mites. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil.
