Peperomia Obtusifolia variegated

Often called the baby rubber plant although there is no relation. Obtusifolia has thick, green upright leaves and can sometime have variegation. Peperomias are considered to be semi-succulents at times meaning they can store water in their leaves, however they are not drought tolerant.

Water: Let soil dry about half way. Think goldilocks. Not too much, not too little. Give them a bit more water then you would a cactus, but not as much as a thirsty fern.

Pets: Beans are edible to people, but the plant itself is toxic to people and pets.
