Peperomia obtusifolia is a bushy upright plant that is native to southern Florida and the Caribbean. As a houseplant, it typically grows on thick erect stems to 12” tall. Waxy, elliptic, thick dark green leaves (to 6” long). Small greenish-white flowers on spikes (to 5” long).
Do Peperomia plants have flowers?
And while they are unique, the flowers of peperomias are far from showy. In a home setting, blooming can be a rare occurrence. The blooms are long, narrow stalks often in a green or brown color that don't resemble flowers.
Should I remove Peperomia flowers?
After the blooming, eliminate floral scapes from the peperomia, cutting them as short as you can. Only eliminate leaves if they've withered, dried up or turned yellow.
