I have a Peperomia or “Happy Bean” that is a tad overgrown. It’s not looking too healthy and I’m not really sure where to start trying to help it. Any ideas?

Wow that’s so interesting that it’s a happy bean. I’m sure you could cut it way down. I had one that grew wild and leggy and I let it go. I couldn’t get it to look nice and dark green like it did for the first year
