-Care Recommendations By The Dude-

Best for These Animals: Small and medium sized reptiles and amphibians from tropical and temperate climates.  Also can be used in some arachnid enclosures.

Please note that the stems on these plants are not very woody, and that larger animals may break/tear them with their weight.

Bio Dude Substrates: TerraFlora, TerraFauna

Soil Depth: Shallow to moderate, with proper drainage

Lighting: Low to medium indirect light

Humidity & Misting: 50%-100%, with higher humidity levels suggested for optimal growth.

Mature Plant Size & Root System: These mound-forming plants will max out at 8 inches tall and possess thick, corrugated leaves. Their very thin, fibrous root systems are shallow, but allow for maximum water absorption with adequate humidity.

Temperature Tolerance & Placement in the Terrarium: Too high temperatures/low humidity may cause leaves to brown.  Best if used as an underplanting or corner placement.  Can also be used as a front (low) groundcover, if pruned back.  

Edible & Side Effects if Ingested: Non-toxic if consumed, though these are typically used for ornamental, not edible, purposes

Pot Size & Packaging: A single 4" potted peperomia plant is shipped in the pot, wrapped in paper.
