Notes
Ruby glow (Peperomia graveolens) is a houseplant for containers and low maintenance spots. It grows outdoors year-round in USDA zone 10 and warmer, down to about 30°F (-1°C). In colder areas, grow it as a houseplant or bring it indoors for winter. This plant likes part sun and average to moist, loamy soil. It stays evergreen, so you get color in every season.
Pairs well with Prince of Orange philodendron, Cebu Blue pothos, and Dragon Wing Pink begonia.
