Our Little Turtles come in a 14cm diameter pot and are 25-35cm long. Each plant is different, the photo on the card is an example of the one you will receive. 

In late summer/early fall, make sure it gets full sun as this will help it produce the stunning blooms.

Between 15 and 25 degrees. It does not tolerate cold or frost, so try not to subject it to temperatures below 15 degrees. They also don't like drafts too much.

Normally the peperomia genus only has one problem: irrigation. We must be observant enough not to flood our peperomia, nor to let the substrate dry completely. Be careful not to leave water on the leaves at nightfall, or we will have rot, loss of leaves and the plant. If we grow it as a succulent, echeveria type, enough light without too much intensity, and moderate watering, our peperomia will live with us for many years.

It is one of the main requirements if you want to get hydrated, green leaves without burned edges or with a decayed appearance. Locate your turtle heart in the the most humid area of the house. For example, a bathroom with access to natural light, or in the kitchen. If you live in a dry climate, it will appreciate a spray or humidifier.

It usually inhabits humid environments with a good presence of organic matter, detritus and decomposing organic matter. Therefore, it is somewhat demanding on fertile soils, so we will look for a mixture of peat and coconut fiber.
