Peperomia Ginny (Peperomia clusiifolia 'Ginny')
Peperomia clusiifolia 'Ginny'
Thick leaves rimmed in a hot-pink edge over cream and green — the showiest peperomia in the shop.
About This Botanical
Also sold as the Tricolor Peperomia, Ginny is a sport of Peperomia clusiifolia — same rainforest-understory tolerance as its cousins, but the pink edging gets more vivid the more light it gets. In lower light it stays green and cream; give it bright indirect light and the color shows up.
Care: Bright indirect light keeps the pink edges vivid. Let the top half of the soil dry between waterings, since the fleshy leaves store water. Use a fast-draining mix.
⚡ Quick Facts
At a Glance- • Light: Medium to bright indirect. More light = more pink edging.

- • Mature size: 8–12" tall.
- • Pet safety: Non-toxic.
- • Beginner-friendly: Yes.
“Why did the pink edge on my leaves fade?”
Not enough light. The coloring is light-dependent, not permanent — move it somewhere brighter and new growth comes back with more color.
