Peperomia ferreyrae
peperomia (syn. Happy Bean)
The bean-shaped foliage that has given this plant its name, is semi-succulent, so it can store a little water during drier spells - and that makes Peperomia ferreyrae less demanding than some of the other houseplants. They form in tight rosettes, which over time can slowly gain a bit of height as they mature.
Please note that the plant comes in a nursery pot as standard, unless a decorative pot cover is included as an option.

How to care for Peperomia ferreyrae:
Position in bright or moderate indirect light—avoid direct sunlight, as the patterned leaves can scorch. This houseplant thrives in a well-draining potting mix and prefers to dry out slightly between waterings: water when the soil is nearly dry, but never let the crown sit in water.
Ideal room temperatures are around 18-24°C (64-75°F), though it can tolerate down to about 10°C (50°F); avoid drafts. Though it tolerates normal household humidity, slightly elevated humidity will benefit it. Feed once or twice during the growing season with a half-strength balanced fertiliser.
