BOTANY | The Peperomia family is a very large plant family of about 500 ornamental foliage plants and is related to the pepper plant. Most Peperomia varieties originate from the Amazon region of South America, where they grow in warm and shady conditions. Most plants produce a flower with a striking color or calyx.
PLANT CAREÂ |Â Peperomias are easy to care for and suitable for most places in the living room. An occasional splash of water is sufficient. Peperomia 'Hope' is suitable as a hanging plant, very nice in combination with a hanging pot from Nkuku. Give BIO plant food once a month during the growing season.
FLOWER POT | The kraft paper pot is waterproof for several weeks to months, depending on the water needs of the plant. The pot is 100% biodegradable and plastic-free. As soon as moisture spots appear in the soil, the pot is no longer watertight and it is best to repot the plant. After repotting, the pot can be handed in with the old paper to be recycled.
