It’s odd watching you on these older videos. 😂😂 You have come a long way in entertainment! Love your videos!

Wouldn’t watch my older stuff 😂

@@SheffieldMadePlants I just got two Peperomias and I needed information. Little baby plants. 🪴 You look bored to death. LOL!

AHHHHHHHHHH!!! I was looking for videos about peperomia since I just got one... And I watch your videos a lot! Seeing this old one is so fun to see how much you've came out of your shell and how different you are in production and how we get to see your full personality now! Great job over the years! Love Sheffield Plants! ❤

Thank you very much. I'd definitely avoid my early videos 😂

Love your collection....your hope looks like a teardrop peperomia var....but I could be wrong...hope has more circular leaves....love your last one...love peperomias so much....yours all look so healthy! Great video

Ah yeah I think you’re right. I lost the name and couldn’t find a good match online, so thanks for the heads up. Definitely a variegated teardrop.

[@plantyhome]

Love how easy it is to propagate Peperomia plants. Creating a green family!

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Surprisingly easy

[@amurphy8278]

I love Peperomias so much. I have so many and love them all, but I think my favorites would be the small leaf trailing ones like String of Turtles, Japonica, and the ones like that. I just got a new load of wish list Peps and I am SO in love with those! The Peperomia you said was the Peperomia Hope (Peperomia deppeana x quadrifolia 'Hope') is actually a Peperomia Pixie Lime (Peperomia orba 'Pixie Lime')

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

You know your peperomias!

[@dionneharris6149]

String of turtles is the one I can not grow. It’s either too wet too dry to light too dark I gave up. Although I can grow string of pearls easily I know some people find them hard to grow I have succeeded. The turtles on the other hand complete failure. 😢

[@glow1815]

So beautiful I love all of them! I see you love and care for your plants like me. I take care of my plants daily and talk to them sometime lol

[@franciscajimenez9703]

Some of my favorites. I love the peperomias. I have about ten of them at the moment. Pretty easy to care for, but with this heat in Texas, US, I had to bring them in.

Very nice plant!

Thank you 😊

[@smievil]

8:08 i have a similar red one, peperomia graveolens, it's tiny but looks interesting. oh you mentioned it at 10:42, i found one in a small package of 3 succulent cuttings. the watermelon looks really fun

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

I still haven't got that plant 😅

[@jannertfol]

I've had SO much trouble with peperomias!~ and they are one of my favourite plants. I kill every one, despite having good luck with most other plants. They get VERY dry at the roots, but then start to wilt, so I water them sparingly, and they immediately rot. I can't seem to get the balance right. I have just ordered a peperomia caperata rooted cutting. I am hoping that starting with one that is so young, I can acclimatise it to my home. I refuse to give up.

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Have you considered a moisture meter to be sure about watering?

[@berenicehickey9755]

They need a porous soil to help stop water soaking the roots for too long.Try cactus mix soil..

[@mwatson4970]

Only one pepperomia I've ever been able to not kill, a pilea. Sooo hard to balance and grow strong roots from babies, but love the look! Inspired by your video, so may try again with maturer ones.

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Can be tricky for sure

[@karicooke6326]

Just a fun piece of plant knowledge, pilea is from the family peperomoides, and is technically not a peperomia. But I still included one in my own pep collection ;)

[@aintgo]

This was pretty cool. My Peperomia looks similar to your Santorini but has more heart shaped leaves. I wish it was bigger though 🤔

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Thanks!

[@konstantinasakka2429]

I envy you. I have not luck with peperomias. I had some babies, and some larger like Santorini and schumi red and I experienced every time I watered them stem rotting at the bottom of the stems. I have not windows only balcony doors, and no grow lights. So the plants are on the furnitures some close, some less close to the balcony. I guess low light was the reason because I watered them by testing with the water meter before. I end up having two struggling (Lillian and Polybodria) and I bottom water them now in case I have more luck.

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Sorry to hear that. I guess I’ve been lucky enough to not have problems with mine. Must be combination of not enough light and maybe overwatering. Meter should help!

[@prettydark]

Thank you, good video, I love my peperomia angulata

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Thanks for watching 😁

[@buttons3232]

I swear you can read minds! I received a Pepperomia Raindrop recently with no info on it so I wasn’t sure what it was. I think I’d like the watermelon next. 💖🇺🇸😁

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Hehe thanks

[@noeltimberlake165]

I have 7 and the Ruby cascade is my favorite. The traditional Watermelon peperomia is a pain in my side.

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Definately a diva

[@luvmysugar1]

I just got my first Peperomia. It say "red garden" and it already has the flowers!

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Sounds nice

[@weasel9062]

Ah, interesting relationship with my one peperomia "napoli nights". Say they like dry roots but not as dry as succulents, okay. So I water the succulents once every 2 - 4 weeks. Start by watering the peperomia once every 7 to 10 days, after a couple months leaves seem soft and little to no growth, I start watering 2 to 3 times a week. Starts to grow and filll out much better over the next 6 months. Then out of nowhere, the large bush of peperomia in the pot all starts to die off. Root rot, but why all of a sudden? Take the entire plant apart and manage to "save" 4 individual smaller sub-plants from the pot. Repot it, start watering again but ever so slightly less. Twice a week, and am careful to make sure the water all drains through quickly. I'm about to sell the plant because it seems too finicky even though I got it back to good health, also my haworthia collection is getting huge and I need to make some space. From my general experience with this plant they like a considerable amount of water, definitely not dry roots but they want it to run right through. They can't take water everyday like peace lilly, but they'll slowly die if watered roughly as much as a real succulent. In regards to the succulents I have much better luck with them, but I've killed 1 haworthia, 1 echeveria, and 2 senecios. Never managed to kill any crassula, pachyphytum, aloes, or sedums. And the damn ghost plant and graptoveria just refuse to "stop" growing and spreading all over.

[@suzijorgensen6545]

I have a mini version of the second peperomia called Peperomia Moonlight. The difference between the two is that mine is pale green and it loves a cutback

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

I’ll have to check it oit

2:20 i was gifted one of those, one of the flowers or thorny flower stems had broken off when i transported it home, i knew it was a flower but a while after i picked it up my brain told me it could be some sort of thorny worm so i suddenly panicked and throw it, but after closer inspection it was indeed just a flower.

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

So a happy ending?

[@smievil]

maybe. my older peperomias never really looked happy though.

it is not easy for me to revive my peperomia watermelon

[@mariajesusmorales6121]

Son sin duda unas bonitas plantas y muy fáciles de cuidar , la Graveolens la cultivo desde hace años en el exterior es la única variedad que he podido comprobar que le muchísimo mejor en exterior, en orientación norte nunca sur o pleno sol , un poco al atardecer o al amanecer le gusta pero no el sol del medio día o tarde , del resto yo suelo podarlas ya que en los inviernos suelen perder muchas hojas del tallo y no tienen su mejor aspecto pero las podas en primavera y así consigues una maceta más poblada y bonita . Un saludo 👍💌

Hello, I got the "not as nice" green version of the obtusifolia and was just checking out when I should water it. Rich, did you ever get the watermelon peperomia? Peace.

Not that one. I've heard it's a fussy one. They like the soil to dry out

A chunky mix. They don’t like wet soil. Not quite like succulents but similar

Wonderful array of peperomias. Another peperomia cultivar that is uncommon is called peperomia ‘ice queen’. The only peperomia ‘ice queen’ KZbin video I found was in Russian. I’d love to see an in depth video on peperomia ‘ice queen’. Also do you think peperomia ‘ice queen’ is the same as a ‘giant’ watermelon peperomia? Based on KZbin videos titles, it appears that they could be similar with slight differences. Perhaps you can get some of your dream plants online that provides thorough reviews

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

I have a peperomia Polybotrya one by one the leaves are falling off HELP!! what to I need to do to save it?

Might be part of the ageing process. The oldest lowest leaf on the stem sometimes falls off to make way for new growth. Or the plant might be rootbound etc

Elizabeth what is your watering routine like for it? Overwatering is a huge cause of leaf dropping in peperomias, they have such small and delicate root systems.
