- CARE GUIDE
-
All of our indoor plants are thoughtfully selected for their easy-to-care-for nature.
You’ll find specific care instructions below, but don’t worry - whether you’re treating yourself or sending a gift, we’ll include simple care instructions with your order to help your plant thrive.
CARE LEVEL
Easy-going and fuss-free – a great pick for plant newbies!LIGHT
Peperomia Rosso loves bright, indirect light but will happily tolerate medium light too. Keep it out of harsh direct sun – those rippled leaves can burn.WATER
Water when the top few centimetres of soil feel dry. Rosso prefers to stay slightly on the dry side – overwatering is its enemy! Cut back in cooler months and always let excess water drain freely.HUMIDITY
Enjoys average indoor humidity but won’t mind a little extra. Not a diva – misting is optional but appreciated in dry spaces.FEEDING
Feed monthly in spring and summer with a half-strength liquid fertiliser. No need to feed in winter.LEAF CARE
Wipe leaves gently with a soft, damp cloth to keep them dust-free and vibrant.PET FRIENDLY?
Yes! Peperomia Rosso is non-toxic and safe for pets and kids.EXTRA TIPS
Wilting or mushy stems? Often a sign of overwatering – let it dry out a bit more between drinks. Leaves curling? It might want more light. Loves to be a little root-bound, so no rush to repot. - WHEN AND HOW TO RE-POT
- Your Hello Botanical plant gift can happily remain in the plastic gardener’s pot and our hessian pot cover for 2-3 months or more. Indoor plants do best if they are left in the plastic gardener's pot for at least a few months. When it is time to re-pot, it's best to re-pot up (into a slightly larger pot) to promote continued growth. You may like to add-on a Mr Kitly selfwatering pot to your plant gift (size 170mm for our small plants, size 250mm for our large plants). We provide individualised advice on how and when to re-pot, per plant, per recipient. We include an information leaflet with your gift, and are available by email or DM anytime for further advice.
