Peperomia meridana is a fascinating and relatively lesser-known species in the Peperomia genus, which is part of the Piperaceae family. The leaves of Peperomia meridana are one of its most striking features. They are thick, fleshy, and have a somewhat rounded or heart-shaped appearance. Peperomia meridana is generally slow-growing and tends to form a dense, bushy clump. It is ideal for container cultivation due to its compact size.
Peperomia meridana's unique appearance and ease of care make it a great choice for indoor plant enthusiasts looking for something a bit different. Its compact size and attractive foliage also make it an excellent addition to terrariums or as a small tabletop plant.

CARE GUIDE
Light:
Peperomia plants grow well in the bright indirect light provided by a west or east-facing window. These plants can even grow under fluorescent lights. Insufficient light causes the slow-growing peperomia plant to stop growing altogether. Direct sunlight burns the leaves.
Water:
Allow the top 50% of the soil to dry out before you water. Over watering, resulting in root rot, is the main cause of serious Peperomia plant problems. It’s best to water these plants from the bottom. This technique keeps the leaves dry and helps prevent plant diseases. The thick leaves of peperomia plants hold water and allow the plant to withstand long periods without moisture.
Temperature:
Warm temperatures between 60°-80° F are best. Temperatures below 50°-55° F and cold drafts from windows and doors damage peperomia plant leaves.
