Ms. Celeste wants to show off her #NewGrowth ! 🌿✨

Hey again, #Greggers 🌱🀍

This is Celeste, my gorgeous #MarbledPeperomia.

⚑️She’s been showing me how good of a job I’ve been doing in terms of taking care of her. I love the variegation on her newer leaves, especially the leaf in the second picture (it’s the most variegated one so far out of all the ones she has).

πŸ“Έ Last picture I took a couple of days after I got her from the store. She was only a little baby!! πŸ₯ΉπŸ₯Ή

πŸ’« I like to think that Celeste is one of my besties and that her and I tend to be on the same wavelength ✨🌱 so she’s just thriving βœ¨β˜€οΈ

She's absolutely gorgeous! What amazing growth since you got her. Where did you get her from (if you don't mind me asking)?
So pretty!!!!!!
@calvina Thank you so much! Your plants are also so pretty! πŸ₯Ήβœ¨
@tacklejackal If I remember correctly, I got her at H‑E‑B! πŸ€”πŸŒ±
@kscape so many awesome leaves :)
Wow she looks amazing! I actually had a chance to get one but picked lemon lime instead. Now I may need both haha
@HoyaAddict ahh me too!! I chose marbled instead 🀣🀣
So, I have a tiny baby marble peperomia, and she’s finally showing new growth! πŸ™ŒπŸΌ but the leaves look pretty green 😩 does the variegation show up later?? This is the first variegated plant I’ve had like this, so I just don’t know lol
Ms. Celeste you are stunning!!
@saatwood It could maybe use more light? I have mine in bright indirect light πŸŒΏβ˜€οΈ
@TJphilobsessed She says thank u 🀍🀍πŸ₯Ή
@kscape I keep it in (what I thought was) a pretty bright window, but maybe it’s not bright enough lol πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈπŸ˜‚
@saatwood try the photone app, it’s great for showing the light of an area 🫢
@saatwood i had to play around and figure out what worked best for my baby. I found out it likes 70% soil and 30% perlite. She does not like to be fully watered. I overhead water with Celeste and eyeball until I think the water has covered the top 3 inches of her soil. After watering, I let the water sit and settle for the next couple of days and it maintains her soil moist until her next watering! πŸ’§πŸŒΏ

I water her….I believe every 10-12 days and mist her twice a week. I also clean her leaves once a week with Isopropyl (no more than 70%). She’s the only plant I usually have the most hands on care but as you can see, she’s loving it! πŸ₯Ήβœ¨πŸ’•

As for the variegations, they kind of showed up when they were little babies and just grew with the leaf 🌿🀍
@kscape that is awesome information, thank you!! 😍πŸ₯ΉπŸ’š

And thank you, @HoyaAddict! πŸ™ŒπŸΌ I’m definitely gonna try that!!
Wow I'm always impressed with good finds at grocery/hardware type stores. I should be looking more closely when I go to mine.
😍 so dang pretty!
