This peperomia is highly prized for the texture and color of its foliage. Its compact habit and small, heart-shaped leaves complement any decor. The 'Abricos' variety has dark, textured foliage variegated with pink. Furthermore, the colored varieties are more sun-tolerant than the all-green variety. Peperomias dislike overwatering and prefer to be slightly root-bound.
