Peperomia 'Aurora-opaline' care

Peperomia 'Aurora-opaline' rewards a patient owner: it grows as an upright clump and asks mostly to be left alone.

Give it morning sun with afternoon shade; leaf colour fades noticeably in darker spots. It prefers to be watered when the top third of the mix is dry, and it will forgive a missed week far better than a doubled one.

It is happiest at 55% humidity or higher, potted in rich, moisture-retentive mix. Under good conditions it may flower indoors, though the foliage is the point.
