Origin
The Peperomia caperata Santorini originates from the Amazon jungle of South America. This type of plant is an individual from the Piperaceae family, which is known for their creeping and climbing lifestyle.

Characteristics
The Peperomia caperata Santorini distinguishes itself with its deeply grooved, heart-shaped leaves that shine like satin. Their colour varies between dark green and red, depending on the lighting. The plant remains small, usually no more than 20 cm in height, and has a compact growth habit. In the summer, small, cream to light green flower spikes may appear.

Care
The Peperomia caperata Santorini likes bright, indirect light and does well on a north or east-facing window. Its watering needs are fairly simple, every few days to weekly is sufficient, with excess water needing to be avoided. The optimal temperature for this plant is between 18-24 degrees Celsius and it requires high humidity, so it may be beneficial to spray the plant regularly with water. It's important to note that the Peperomia caperata Santorini is sensitive to over-watering; well-draining soil and a pot with drainage holes are essential.
