About the plant:
Peperomia, or pepper plant, is a plant from the pepper family (yes, this includes black pepper). Peperomia prostrata is a small plant with leaves whose pattern resembles a tortoise shell. That's why it bears the nickname string of turtles. These peppercorns also have the beautiful Czech name Želvičky. If you give the plant enough light, it will grow really fast.
They are most naturally found in South and Central America, but a few species can also be found in Africa. More than 1,500 species have been recorded in tropical and subtropical regions. It is an epiphyte that is often found growing on rotting wood.
Although their shape, size and colors differ, in most cases it is an undemanding shrub-like plant. Its narrow and thin flower grows in the form of a spike. It is yellow in color and looks like a wax candle. The leaves are fleshy and smooth, and can be heart- or spear-shaped.

We are more about peperomia wrote in our article.

Light

This plant requires a bright place without direct sun or partial shade. If it doesn't have enough light, its leaves might start to fall off or turn pale.

Watering

We water adequately, we always wait for the substrate to dry out, it has really fragile roots that can rot with excessive watering.

Humidity

This is a tropical plant that requires increased humidity. You can mist it regularly.

Propagation

The easiest way is propagation using leaves that can be rooted in water. It is also possible to use stem leaves or cuttings, which we stick into a mixture of peat and sand. We cover this with foil, which we remove from time to time and moisten the soil. After rooting, transplant into soil.

Common problems

Overwatering: Too much water can cause root rot, yellowing and leaf drop.
Brown spots on leaves: Burning leaves from direct sunlight, watering with lime water.
The plant does not grow: We have to transplant the plant, soil without nutrients, not enough light.
Bugs, nematodes: We deal with special sprays.

How does DMP delivery work?

All plants and some accessories on our e-shop are sent directly from the grower in Holland. We want them to be at your place as soon as possible and not spend time going around different warehouses and stores. We ship part of our own products marked with the Made in DMP label directly from our warehouse in Prague.
