Kimnach's Peperomia is a rare peperomia that turns up infrequently in cultivation, and collectors seek it out for both its trailing form and its semi-succulent leaf structure. You can move it outside for summer and bring it back in before temperatures drop. This plant is pet friendly, and you can leave it up to ten days without water if you need to travel.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli id=\"tab2\"\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Sun_65296975-26d8-49a3-83b6-b7b0ed15ae73_480x480.png?v=1600397323\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Sun_65296975-26d8-49a3-83b6-b7b0ed15ae73_480x480.png?v=1600397323\" class=\"ls-is-cached lazyloaded\" alt=\"\"\u003e \u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e  Peperomia kimnachii grows well in bright indirect light, placed a few feet back from an east or west-facing window.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Water_d9b740b9-bfce-41c4-ae3e-16bf9678c77f_480x480.png?v=1600397177\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Water_d9b740b9-bfce-41c4-ae3e-16bf9678c77f_480x480.png?v=1600397177\" class=\"ls-is-cached lazyloaded\" alt=\"\"\u003e \u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e  Water it every 10 to 14 days, allowing the top inch of soil to dry out completely between waterings.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Soil_40a149eb-9d43-4bf0-ac38-159c702c72f2_480x480.png?v=1600397158\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Soil_40a149eb-9d43-4bf0-ac38-159c702c72f2_480x480.png?v=1600397158\" class=\"ls-is-cached lazyloaded\" alt=\"\"\u003e \u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e  Kimnach's Peperomia does best in a well-draining mix of potting soil combined with perlite or coarse sand in equal parts.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Temperature.png?v=1613688445\" alt=\"\"\u003e \u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e  It prefers temperatures between 65°F and 80°F and stays away from air conditioning vents and heating units.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cimg height=\"16\" width=\"16\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Fertilizer_5853ff19-6010-410a-a082-3abe233cb8d2_480x480.png?v=1600399297\" class=\"lazyload\" alt=\"\"\u003e \u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e  Kimnach's Peperomia is a slow to moderate grower; feed it with a balanced liquid fertilizer once a month during spring and summer only.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cimg height=\"16\" width=\"16\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Spackle_0b1c313b-e538-42e0-8818-7f0bdf63d530_480x480.png?v=1600397104\" alt=\"\"\u003e \u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e  It is hardy in USDA zones 10 to 12, where frost is rare and temperatures stay above 30°F through winter.
