Peperomia 'Watermelon' thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate moderate light conditions. To maintain its vibrant foliage, avoid direct sunlight, which may scorch its delicate leaves.
Allow the top inch of soil to dry between waterings. Water sparingly to prevent root rot, as Peperomia 'Watermelon' prefers slightly moist but not soggy soil. Use well-draining soil to maintain optimal moisture balance.

Feed Peperomia 'Watermelon' with a diluted, balanced liquid fertilizer once a month during the growing season (spring and summer). Avoid over-fertilizing to protect its delicate root system.
Repot Peperomia 'Watermelon' every 2-3 years to refresh the soil and encourage continued growth. Prune any damaged or yellowing leaves to maintain its compact and vibrant appearance.
With its unique, watermelon-like foliage, Peperomia 'Watermelon' adds a playful and refreshing touch to any room. Place it in a decorative pot on a shelf, desk, or coffee table to enhance your indoor greenery.
