This Peperomia receives its name from its small, round leaves adorned with intricate patterns resembling turtle shells. The String of Turtles offers a unique aesthetic with its patterned foliage, compact appearance, and trailing habit. It looks fantastic spilling over a shelf or in a suspended planter. This plant makes an excellent addition to indoor plant collections, especially for those looking to add a touch of whimsy to their space.
CARE:
- Thrives in consistent, bright, indirect light. A few hours of direct morning or late afternoon sun can be beneficial. However, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight during the hottest summer months can scorch the delicate leaves, while insufficient light may lead to leggy growth.
- Does best with moderate humidity, but can adapt to household humidity
- Be sure that you don't overwater this plant by maintaining soggy soil, as the roots are small and intricate, making them able to go years without a need to be repotted, but prone to overwatering.
- Allow 80 percent of the soil to dry before watering. Avoid allowing the soil to completely dry out. We recommend bottom-watering if possible.
- When upsizing the pot, a wider, shallower pot is recommended.
- Prune straggly stems as needed to maintain a compact shape and lush appearance
