🌿 For Houseplants
When your package arrives, you may notice a bit of loose soil in the box. This is completely normal during shipping.
Please remove your plants from their packaging as soon as possible and review the care instructions included with your order. Water based on your plant’s needs, making sure not to overwater.
Houseplants may need a short adjustment period after arrival. Give your plant time to acclimate to its new space before placing it with other plants. You can gently clean the leaves if needed, and wait to fertilize until it has settled in. Always check soil moisture instead of watering on a fixed schedule.
*** We pack carefully to protect each plant during transit, so larger orders may arrive in multiple packages.

Peperomia polybotrya Raindrop is a small, upright houseplant with a clean, sculptural appearance. It’s native to the tropical regions of Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru, where it grows in warm, shaded forest understories. This plant has distinctive raindrop-shaped leaves, broad at the top and tapering to a soft point, like a teardrop or a water droplet about to fall.
While many Peperomias have textured or patterned surfaces, Raindrop Peperomia has flat, glossy, solid green leaves. They're thicker than most houseplant leaves, with a fleshy texture that stores moisture — making the plant more drought-tolerant than many other tropicals. Each leaf attaches to the stem with a noticeable dip at the base — this is called a peltate leaf attachment, where the petiole (leaf stem) connects not at the edge, but near the middle of the leaf. This feature gives the foliage a “cupped” or slightly uplifted look, almost like a spoon.
The plant grows to about 30–38 cm in height and width and keeps a compact, upright shape. Its thick stems rise vertically, then may arch slightly under the weight of mature leaves — but it doesn’t trail or sprawl. This makes it easy to place in small spaces, and it stays tidy without pruning. It may occasionally produce slim flower spikes, but the foliage is its main feature. 
Thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate moderate shade. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves. An east or north-facing window is ideal.
Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot; ensure the pot has proper drainage. During winter, reduce watering frequency as the plant's growth slows.
Use a well-draining potting mix, such as one formulated for succulents or cacti. Fertilize monthly during the growing season with a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer. Avoid over-fertilizing, especially in the dormant winter months. 
Ideal temperatures range from 65°F to 80°F. Prefers moderate to high humidity; consider using a humidifier or placing the plant on a pebble tray to increase humidity. Protect from drafts and sudden temperature changes.
Peperomia Raindrop is non-toxic to pets and humans, making it a safe choice for households with animals and children.
