Peperomia Schumi Red 5 Inch Pot

My sister thrust a plant at me, proclaiming, "Even you can't kill this one." I eyed it suspiciously, recalling the Great Fern Fiasco of '98. But this leafy fellow had a certain je ne sais quoi, a will to live that bordered on the manic. I named it Lazarus, for obvious reasons. Weeks passed, and despite my best efforts to neglect it into oblivion, it thrived. It survived overwatering, underwatering, and that time I accidentally spritzed it with glass cleaner. Now, Lazarus and I have an understanding: it pretends I'm a competent plant parent, and I pretend not to notice its superhuman resilience.

Lucky you! Your plant gets to play vampire - no direct sun gazing allowed, darling. But don't worry, it's not a total recluse. Early bird or night owl? Both work! For the drama queen in your plant, try a sheer curtain filter - très chic. Most homes are basically plant paparazzi-free zones anyway. Just find that sweet spot where your leafy diva can bask in the limelight without getting a sunburn. Bright, indirect light is the plant equivalent of perfect mood lighting. Your peace lily will be living its best life, sans sunglasses!

Well, aren't you blessed with a low-maintenance green diva? This leafy superstar thrives in the limelight but won't throw a tantrum in medium light. Fancy a prime spot? Try the room's center stage - you know, that sweet spot between "window adjacent" and "middle of nowhere." It's like the Goldilocks zone for plants! And get this: your chlorophyll companion is basically a living mood ring. More light? It'll stretch out like it's at a yoga retreat. Less light? It'll play it cool. Who knew plants could be such adaptable drama queens? Shine on, you crazy diamond!

Oh, what a delightful little water connoisseur you've got there! This green gem prefers its soil on the drier side - think of it as a spa day for roots. A week between drinks is usually perfect, but who doesn't love a bit of flexibility? Just keep an eye out for those adorable droopy leaves - that's your plant's charming way of saying "Hydration, please!" Brighter spots might make it a tad thirstier, while shadier nooks turn it into a water-sipping master. Remember, a touch of thirst keeps your leafy friend robust and thriving. Happy plant, happy life!

Aren't these leafy divas just living their best tropical fantasy? A daily mist is their version of a luxury spa treatment - talk about high maintenance! If you're feeling fancy, why not throw in a personal humidifier? It's like a full-time butler for your plant's atmospheric needs. Don't fret if you can't keep up with their humidity demands though. They won't dramatically wilt away, but they might sport some fashionably crunchy leaf edges - think of it as the plant equivalent of a bad hair day. Embrace the drama, darling!

Hello Hoyas! Native to several countries of Asia, Hoyas are beautiful plants with over 900 species that come in unique colours and shapes. Hoyas are part of a family known as Apocynaceae; its subfamily is the Asclepiadoideae (milkweeds). Hoyas also go by Wax Plant, Honey Plant or Wax Vine, and it’s likely you’ve seen one in your grandparents’ home. They’re a very popular indoor houseplant with thick – you guessed it – waxy leaves. If they’ve got all their growing conditions checked off, Hoyas will eventually bloom stunning, small clusters of symmetrical star-shaped flowers that are bright in colour with a subtle, sweet scent. Hoyas are slow-growing climbers and creepers that are relatively easy to maintain, so you’ll often see them perched in a hanging basket or wrapped around a trellis when grown outside.
