Peperomia caperata 'Red Luna'
A statement plant that is easy to look after.
The Ripple Peperomia is sought after for the eye catching texture of the leaves and in the case of Red Luna - the stunning red tint of the foliage and stalks. It's often said to be good for beginners but make sure you get light levels right if you tend to overwater as it won't be able to utilise the volume of moisture in darker spaces.

Plant care
This plant needs the following:
Light
Bright indirect light but can tolerate lower light (although we have not had much luck with lower light!).

Water when top 2-3 cm of soil are dry to the touch. This plant likes to be evenly moist but never soggy.
Placement
Avoid a direct sunny location, perhaps a dining table or bookshelf could be ideal?
