About Peperomia dolabriformis(Prayer Pepper)
Peperomia dolabriformis is a species of pepper in the Piperaceae family, native to Peru, with small, plump, fleshy leaves, longitudinal windows at the upper part of the leaf margins, and axe-like blades throughout, appearing green, pink, and so on in different lights, and overall looking like a group of pixies, jumping and dancing in the dreamy forest sunshine." Peperomia dolabriformis are relatively easy to care for and are suitable for home growing.
How to care for Peperomia dolabriformis(Prayer Pepper)
Sun/Temperature: Peperomia dolabriformis is tolerant of semi-shade. However, if it does not get enough light, the plant tends to overgrow and become loose. In full sun, its leaves will be more compactly arranged. His preferred temperature is 60℉ to 80℉.
Soil/Watering/Pot: It needs well-drained, well-aerated soil and pots with drainage holes, and cool-toned pots are more suited to its temperament. You need to make sure that the soil is dry before watering and to avoid standing water.
Repotting: You can change its pot and soil each spring, cutting off any overgrown or overlapping leaves as you do so.
Pests and Diseases: It is susceptible to leaf spot disease, which you can treat by spraying with Mancozeb liquid. If the room is not well ventilated, it is susceptible to mealybugs, which can be treated by spraying with Malthion.

Winter shipping
We insist on shipping succulents to our customers all year round.
