Peperomia caperata 'Quito'

Peperomia Quito glows with warm coppery-red tones that make it feel moodier and richer than the average peperomia. It is a compact plant with surprising depth.

Quito usually keeps its best color in brighter indirect light and appreciates being kept on the slightly drier side.

WATER: Water when the top half of the mix is dry

HUMIDITY: Average to moderate humidity is fine

HOW OUR SHIPPING WORKS We ship all live plants with custom packing, insulation, and lots of cushioning so they arrive in the best condition possible. Shipping rates are based on the packed weight of your order (plants + soil + pot + box + insulation). This helps us cover the real cost of getting breakable, living things safely to you. 

In cold weather, we strongly recommend adding a Heat Pack add-on for each shipment. Heat packs are priced separately and add additional weight to your box.

SHIPPING NOTE: Shipping includes wrapping and insulation. Heat packs are not included by default—please add a Heat Pack add-on to your cart for cold-weather shipping. 

Shipping Days are Monday-Wednesday to avoid weekend and holiday delays.

PLEASE NOTE: What you see is the vibe — not the exact plant. 🌿

Each plant has its own personality (some a little more dramatic than others).

Leaf shape, size, and variegation will vary, but pot size is consistent.
