About this plant

Peperomia 'Parallel' has almond-shaped leaves striped in alternating dark and light green, like the rind of a watermelon. The leaves come in whorls of three or four on upright reddish stems.

Give it medium to bright, indirect light. Let the soil dry out between waterings, then water well and let the pot drain. As the stems lengthen they lean and spill, so it looks good at the edge of a shelf.

It is in stock in a 4 inch pot. Pinch back a long stem now and then to keep it bushy. It is an easy, low-key plant for a desk or a mixed shelf display.

From November to April, we recommend adding Winter Plant Shipping Protection (a heat pack) at checkout. Plants shipped in cold weather without it are not covered for cold damage.
