The collector's delight, the Peperomia argyreia (or 'Watermelon' peperomia!) is a must-have for any green thumb. Its bold, beautiful stripes of green-and-silver resemble the rind of a watermelon -- a perfect addition to any planty paradise. This evergreen perennial will grow to about 30cm tall! If you're guilty of over-neglecting your plants, this peperomia won't cut it - they're serious water drinkers! Even though it produces some delicate flowers in the warm months, they're more for show than anything else; many growers opt to snip them off to focus energy on foliage growth.
