RhusI have two that are almost the same! The white-veined one is a fittonia; don't let it get too dry or it will be extremely dramatic and lie down in its pot. Also, indirect light. The other one is a peperomia, and it DOES want to dry out between waterings, and wants plenty of light. Loose chunky soil is good for both but especially for the peperomia.

Green WitchThe vein one is a Peruvian nerve plant, it loves humidity, I have mine in a terrarium because originally it wasn’t and it got dramatic and dried out but after putting it in the terrarium and keeping it humid and damp it’s thriving.

BbI send this 👆 i had a few fittonias a number of years ago and they all kept dying. I realised a few years after that the places they were being kept in were too inconsistently humid. The peperomia on the other hand is pretty easy to care for

Yeah I had to research to figure out why mine was dying, but my sister had a clipping from mine in her terrarium and it was thriving so I switched a few months ago after mine lost all its leafs, and no it’s got more leafs and is happy I haven’t had an issue😊 it’s one of my favorites.

AdrianThis one is a peperomia obtusifolia. They’re great low-maintenance plants once they’re in a spot they like and in proper soil. They like to be more snug in their pots and get a little root-bound. I keep mine in Espoma’s Cactus and Succulent mix every 12-14 days. They need a very well-draining soil because they’re epiphytic plants. They can handle being in a house without extra humidity, but you should pull them from the windowsill in the winter. I let the soil completely dry out between waterings, and they do well in most lighting situations, but if you have south-facing windowsills to work with, they grow much faster once gradually exposed to more light. Mine sit in my south windowsills in the spring and summer, and I put them under grow lights in the winter to keep them from getting cold. Hope this helps!

This is one of my variegated peperomias, for reference. I’ve only had her since last May and she’s been growing like a weed ever since. I originally placed her in my north-facing window when I first got her, but she did just as well in my south-facing windowsills, and grows a lot faster in brighter light. Peperomias are one of my absolute favorite plants, especially for anyone new to houseplants, so I hope yours treats you as well as mine do 😊

LadyTenorJDI have both and love them. The nerve plant on the right loves to have moist soil. If he is thirsty, you will know! He will dramatically lay down!
