The baby rubber plant (Peperomia obtusifolia) is a compact, low-maintenance, tropical plant grown mostly for its glossy, spoon-shaped, fleshy, dark green or variegated foliage. It occasionally blooms nondescript, small, whitish-green flowers. Peperomia obtusifolia grows best in low-light or indirect bright light, in loose, moist soil, and thrives in high humidity.
Peperomia obtusifolia:
- Choose an indoor spot for your baby rubber plant with bright but indirect light. Place a non-variegated baby rubber plant in low light.
- Avoid overwatering because baby rubber plants do not like soggy, wet conditions.
- Keep the plant in a humid room where the temperature remains between 65°F to 75°F.
- Fertilize monthly during the growing season.

It was fun to receive the mystery box. A nice surprise for myself and great plants!
I have just retired and have gotten into house plants and outdoor perennials. This was an excellent beginners read to help me understand what is going on.
I love these plants, always beautifully packed with and shipped with lots of love and care. The quality of the plants are beautiful and healthy. I would 💯 percent recommend Rooted plant shop. Mel is my plant gal, whom has now become family. I love her knowledge and how she explains everything out.
Packed to arrive in perfect condition. The plant is so full and healthy. Will definitely purchase from you again!!!
I was surprised with a text from Mel, letting me know my options for selecting my first plant and asking my input about what plant I wanted. I was able to text back what I thought and just a couple days later, a beautiful black velvet Alocasia arrived, thoughtfully wrapped, all snug with a warming pouch. What a fun idea and well executed. I certainly look forward to next month! Thanks for being so informative, as well.
I purchased two varieties of synonyms from the shop. They arrived well-packed and literally not one blemish! It was shocking in the best way. Highly recommend this shop!
I am not one to respond to many emails or surveys but this book resonated with me in a special way today.
Long story short we have been thru a lot of trauma in the last 5 years. Loss in a hurricane, cancer and other surgeries between my husband and I.
A little personal, but relevant, we got in a tiff today because of how many plants I have acquired. I needed his help because I had surgery on Weds. Admittedly I have spent a lot on plants in the last 2 years but your book rang so true for me when you explained how plants support is by creating a calming environment. That whole paragraph spoke volumes to me as to why they are so important to me and my healing journey. Yes I most likely need to slow down in my purchases but even when it’s a chore to water and care for them by the time I am finished there is so much joy and accomplishment. Thank you for helping me make that connection. It helped me in a moment when I needed that clarity and how they impact my every day life.
This book is very well written and the illustration is stunning. I can’t wait to get the next volume! So much appreciated. Thank you
The plant arrived safely and packaged well. She’s perked up nicely in her new home. Thanks for such a great product!
I love this shop and all the knowledge I have gained from Mel! My plants are beautiful that come they’re very well cared for and loved!
Fantastic resource for people new to owning house plants. Very readable and a great basis for the next books to build on.
As always this shop is customer first. Wonderful plant and great shipping
