Peperomia polybotrya, also known as Coin-Leaf Peperomia or Raindrop Peperomia, is a delightful addition to your houseplant collection. The glossy green, thick, heart-shaped leaves are beautiful and the plant remains pretty compact so it is great for smaller spaces!
Plant Size
Small: 3.5-4 inch standard nursery pot.
Medium 5 - 6Â inch standard nursery pot.
Light
Raindrop Peperomia prefers the ubiquitous âbright indirect lightâ and warm temperatures (try not to go below 60F). That being said, indoors I give my plant a little bit of direct sun. Your plant will be happy in an Eastern exposure window where it receives gentler morning sunshine
Water
Raindrop Peperomias do not need a lot of attention when it comes to watering. Allow the top layer of soil to dry (to the first knuckle on your finger) before watering again. Do not water your plant too frequently. Don't water before the soil dries a little, as this can lead to root rot.
Plant Specific Care
A well-draining soil is important for Peperomia Polybotrya or Raindrop Peperomia. There's a couple different ways you can make this soil mix: Option 1: Mix 50% indoor potting mix (moisture retention and nutrients) with 50% perlite or pumice (drainage/airflow).
