# Wow. This little plant was slowly dying for a couple of months under…

Wow. This little plant was slowly dying for a couple of months under my grow light. Three days ago. I put it in the window and look at all the new leaves. It might just be taking root but I’m pretty convinced it’s responding to the natural light.

I had one of these years ago but have not seen any in the stores recently. It stays small I believe. Peperomia Pixie Lime?

Is that what it is? It wasn’t labeled. AI said it was a baby rubber plant.

I just tried google lens and it said pixie lime. Baby rubber plant would be rounder leaves and darker color. Not mine but I think this is a baby rubber plant.

This is one of mine. Much older plant and variegated.

Oh I see! Yours is a lime variegated and mines probably just a lime. I’ll look it up.
