I received a Peperomia Jayde a week ago and already about 10 to 12 leaves have fallen off. The care guide that came with the plant say's "Moderately dry soil". The soil was very dry when I received it and I have watered it once. How should I care for this plant?
It could be a light issue/needing time to adjust to it's new home. I give my peperomia's some direct sun which sit nearby a south window and they get watered well when dry, careful to spill out any excess so it's not sitting in water.
Thank you for the info. Currently my plant is getting no direct sun light and this morning 2 more leaves had dropped off.
Your welcome! As long as it's being watered correctly, more bright light with some sun added should help stop the leaf drop.
