🐾Peperomia 'Picollo Banda'

Peperomia rugosa C.C.Berg, E.A.Mennega & Tolsma

Common Names: Peperomia ‘Rugosa’

Peperomia ‘Rugosa’ is the tiny tabletop charmer your plant shelf didn’t know it needed. With its rippled, banded foliage and compact, chubby posture, this little guy knows how to steal the show without taking up the space. Its striped, textured leaves look almost hand-painted, giving it a quirky personality that makes you smile before you even realize it.

Terrarium lovers? Oh, this one is calling your name. Its petite size and slow, steady growth make it a natural fit for enclosed environments — or just that one sunny corner where something cute needs to live.

Watering

Allow the soil to dry 50% before watering. This semi-succulent beauty prefers light sips over heavy gulps — think “sip, don’t chug,” like a classy cocktail.

Lighting

Thrives in a wide view of the sky with bright, filtered light. Medium light works too, but brighter indirect light keeps those gorgeous markings crisp and vibrant.

Pet Safety🐾 Pet Friendly! Safe for cats, dogs, and the occasional nosy terrarium creature.

Fleurish Tip: Give your Rugosa a gentle rotation now and then so every leaf gets its moment in the spotlight — because nobody puts baby in a corner. And remember, less water = happier Peperomia. If the soil feels like a sponge that’s lost its bounce, it’s time for a refresh.
