# Can anyone tell me what I’m doing wrong with my Peperomia I put her…

Can anyone tell me what I’m doing wrong with my Peperomia I put her in a smaller pot and I removed her from the windowsill, and she still won’t spark up. It looks like she has some new growth though.

In my experience, pepperomia like to stay damp. Try misting in between waters and/or get a humidifier

I’d make sure that the type of peperomia you have likes to stay damp. Most of them are more like a succulent and need to dry out between waterings. Also, your soil could be holding too much moisture (even though you downsized the pot). I usually use a good quality houseplant soil and add more stuff like pumice, small bark, and maybe a little charcoal.
