Peperomia prostrata (String of Turtles)

Peperomia prostrata is a trailing, vining, ground cover peperomia, named for its unique “turtle shell” pattern on its leaf surfaces. Very easy to grow with minimal care. 

Peperomia grow best with indirect, filtered light and only need to be watered when the soil feels dry. Pot up in a well-draining soil mix to ensure adequate drainage. Stems tend to rot with too much moisture. 

BONUS: Peperomia are PET-FRIENDLY!
