Peperomia Caperata ‘Quito’ 6”—A Botanical Performer in Your Home Stage

Meet the Peperomia Caperata ‘Quito’ 6”, a plant that’s as thoughtful as you are. Known as the “Radiator Plant,” it brings drama in all the right ways—deep burgundy leaves with crinkled textures that catch the light like velvet curtains on opening night.

The Nitty-Gritty (Plant Care):

• Light: Loves bright, indirect light but will also hang out happily in lower light—like a true introvert at a dinner party.

• Water: Let the top inch dry out between waterings—Quito hates soggy roots but appreciates consistency. Think “sip, don’t soak.”

• Humidity: Moderate humidity keeps it looking luxe. It’s chill with average room humidity but won’t say no to a misty moment.

What It’s Telling You:

• Happy Signs: Plump leaves and deep, bold colour mean it’s living its best life.

• Needs TLC: Limp or fading leaves? It might be thirsty or sitting somewhere too dim. Adjust its spotlight accordingly.

Good News for Pet Parents:

Yes! Peperomia Caperata ‘Quito’ is pet-friendly—no drama for your curious fur-fam.

Extra Love for Detail Lovers:

• The 6” size refers to the diameter of the nursery pot, not the height of the plant.

• Your Peperomia Caperata ‘Quito’ will arrive in its nursery pot—any containers or ceramics shown are for styling inspiration only.

• At 3B’s Flowers, we photograph every plant in-house, but nature doesn’t do clones. Your Quito might have unique marks, quirks, or patterns, adding to its one-of-a-kind charm.

Symbolism with Style:

A symbol of harmony and resilience, ‘Quito’ brings balance to busy spaces and makes a grounding gift for housewarmings, thank-yous, or a treat-yourself moment. It’s a subtle stunner—perfect for desks, side tables, or anywhere you want a touch of moodiness without the maintenance fuss.
