Product description
Peperomia Happy Bean is an indoor plant that has semi-succulent features. This allows the plant to store water for longer periods of time and make the care process easier for owners of all levels of plant knowledge. The foliage itself is a bright green colour that forms in small, bean-shaped rosettes which is a very neat look to include within any indoor space. You can purify the air with this plant, mainly due to the Peperomia genus having this trait amongst all of its plants. It will remove harmful pollutants and unwanted toxins from the air, therefore freshening up the atmosphere. Watering should be done once or twice a month, but the levels can stay low almost all year round, with partially shaded locations also helping the plants growth and progression.

House Plant Size Guide
House plants come in a wide array of shapes and sizes depending on the variety and maturity of the plant.
6cm/12cm/15cm/19cm/23cm nursery pots are the most common size of pot that they are sold in. This measurement is the diameter at the top of the pot.
12cm potted plants are the most popular providing great value for money and an instant impact. Larger plants that come in pots of 20cm+ are great for making a statement in any room and can represent years of growth to get to that level of maturity and size.

Top Tip
Peperomia thrives in warm, humid conditions, making it an excellent choice for bathrooms or kitchens. To maintain its compact and attractive shape, pinch back leggy growth occasionally. Avoid placing the plant in direct sunlight, as it can fade or scorch its vibrant foliage. With its easy-care nature, Peperomia makes a perfect addition to any indoor plant collection.
How to Water
Water Peperomia sparingly, allowing the top 2–3 cm of soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering can cause root rot, so ensure the pot has good drainage to remove excess moisture. During the growing season, water every 1–2 weeks, reducing the frequency in winter. Use filtered or rainwater for best results, as tap water may leave mineral deposits on the leaves.
How to Plant
To plant Peperomia, choose a small pot with good drainage and use a well-draining potting mix, such as one designed for succulents or houseplants. Gently remove the plant from its container, loosen the roots slightly, and position it so the base of the stem is just above the soil line. Backfill with soil, firm gently, and water lightly. Place the pot in a spot with bright, indirect light to prevent the leaves from scorching while allowing for healthy growth.
