I’ve been -struggling- with a Watermelon Peperomia that I bought back in August. I will say that the quality of the plant was questionable, so that may be where my issues lay, but it’s the only plant out of the 30 or so I have that has never thrived. Despite my best care, it hasn’t grown a new leaf in months, and I’ve even been babying it inside a plant cabinet.

Anyway, I decided the next time I saw a nice one I was going to buy it. I just picked up this gorgeous specimen today and will be chucking the old one in the trash. I’d like it to avoid the fate of its predecessor, any advice from those of you who have been successful with this plant?

Anyone in Florida keep it outdoors? It seemed like my first one didn’t like the heat so I swapped to keeping it inside after awhile, I’ve got some more temperate plants that live inside under a grow light 😅

    i swear watermelon peperomias are so dramatic sometimes! mine was sulking for weeks until i moved it away from my other plants and gave it less water. they’re like the moody teenagers of houseplants lol.
