Using clear containers is a great way to monitor the stems root growth and ensure everything is going well.
The leaf should remain above the surface.
Put the container in a location that receivesbright, indirect light, and refresh the water once a week.
Prepare a small container with well-draining potting soil and plant the rooted stem cutting, watering thoroughly after planting.
Keep the soil evenly moist for the first week to help the roots acclimate.
Then, they can be removed and acclimated back to standard household humidity.
How to Propagate Peperomia by Leaf Cuttings
Lastly, peperomia can also be propagated by leaf cuttings.
Leaf propagation is suitable forpeperomia varietiesthat are non-variegated.
You may need to partially bury the leaf to accomplish this which is fine.
As long as part of the leaf remains above the soil, it will be happy.
