The Watermelon Peperomia gets its name from the appearance of its foliage, which resembles a watermelon. Despite its small size, this plant stands out thanks to the pattern and color of its leaves. Indeed, the silvery stripes on its large, thick leaves with their red undersides are quite striking. The Peperomia is sensitive to overwatering and intense sunlight.
