Peperomia obtusifolia ‘Citrus Twist’

Description

Peperomia obtusifolia ‘Citrus Twist’ is a compact tropical houseplant with thick, glossy foliage splashed in green, cream, and bright citrus-yellow tones. Its tidy habit and colorful leaves make it a good choice for desks, shelves, and small indoor plant displays.

Peperomia ‘Citrus Twist’ Care

Provide bright, indirect light to help maintain strong variegation. Let the upper portion of the potting mix dry before watering again, then water thoroughly and allow excess moisture to drain. Thick leaves store some moisture, so this plant generally handles slight dryness better than persistently wet soil.

Growing Notes

• Light: Bright, indirect light.
• Water: Allow the upper potting mix to dry slightly between waterings.
• Soil: Airy, well-drained houseplant mix.
• Temperature: Warm indoor conditions; avoid cold drafts.
• Habit: Compact and upright.

Peperomias are widely grown for their foliage and generally need only modest feeding during active growth. Avoid rigid watering schedules and adjust care to light, temperature, pot size, and how quickly the mix dries.
