Peperomia Watermelon, 4" Pot

Watermelon peperomia (Peperomia argyreia) is appreciated for its rounded, fleshy leaves marked with silver and dark green stripes that resemble the markings of a watermelon. Watermelon peperomia is a low-growing plant that reaches only 6 to 8 inches tall at maturity. Although the plant is usually grown as a houseplant, it grows outdoors in the warm climates of U. S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 10 through 12. Usually, watermelon peperomia is grown in a container so it is easy to move indoors when temperatures drop below 60 degrees Fahrenheit.
