Peperomia Caperata Burbella Care
Watering
Burbella has a simple mantra when it comes to water: "Just enough, not too much." Wait until the top inch of the soil is dry before giving it a drink, and ensure the pot drains well to avoid soggy roots.
Light
This Peperomia loves to bask in bright, indirect sunlight. While it's forgiving and can tolerate some shade, direct sunlight might be a bit overwhelming for its delicate leaves.
Temperature
Burbella feels most at ease in temperatures between 65°F to 75°F (18°C to 24°C). It's a bit sensitive to the cold, so steer clear of drafty spots.
Soil Mix
A light, airy soil mix is Burbella's favorite. Combine regular potting soil with some perlite or sand to ensure good drainage and a happy plant.
Humidity
Originating from tropical regions, Burbella enjoys a touch of humidity. While it's adaptable, maintaining a humidity level around 50% will make it thrive. Dry environment? No worries. A humidifier or occasional misting will do the trick.t.
Fertilizer
Feed your Burbella with a diluted, balanced liquid fertilizer every 3-4 weeks during its active growth months. Come winter, you can ease up on the feeding.
Toxicity
While the Peperomia Caperata Burbella is a visual treat, it's best to admire with the eyes and not the mouth. It can be mildly irritating if ingested, so it's wise to keep it away from curious pets and little ones.
