@dreaarosee I haven’t grown them in water. I have propagated a few, and their roots will take off and they’re kinda wiry, so I dunno long term. Buuuut, I will tell you something I learned recently, after I had this plant and killed it 😂 These guys like more sun than you think, but not direct sun. And, they like an airy chunky soil that the water can run right through. Your soil looks a little heavy in the photo. Once I switched to an airy soil on my peperomias (ruby cascade, emerald ripple, hope, beetle, string of turtles, teardrop)… they perked right up and started to take off.
@TheOddAsity I'm definitely planning to repot in a smaller pot and I will take the opportunity to switch to an airy soil. Thanks a bunch! Hoping to keep this one and the other I have alive 😅
@dreaarosee I wish you luck! They’re such pretty plants
