Peperomia Zorro (Peperomia caperata 'Zorro')
Common Names in South Africa: Zorro Peperomia, Ripple Peperomia, Radiator Plant
Overview: Hailing from South America, Peperomia 'Zorro' is a compact and charismatic houseplant with deep burgundy, heart-shaped leaves and a ruffled, textured surface that adds bold drama to any indoor space. It thrives in bright, indirect light and is perfect for shelves, desks, or small nooks in South African homes that need a splash of moody colour.
Quirky Fact: Though it looks like a diva, Zorro is a low-fuss plantits thick, fleshy leaves store water like a succulent, making it more drought-tolerant than you'd expect!
Care for Damaged Leaves: Snip off droopy or faded leaves close to the base with clean scissors. Avoid overwateringlet the top layer of soil dry out between drinks. With good care, fresh leaves usually sprout within 23 weeks.
Safety Note: Non-toxic to pets and humans, so it's a worry-free choice for plant lovers with furry or tiny family members.
