Raindrop Peperomia (Peperomia polybotrya)
Raindrop Peperomia is a clean, modern houseplant with thick, glossy leaves that look polished in any room. It is a great choice for plant owners who want something easy to live with, because it tolerates a lighter watering routine and stays compact. The bold leaf shape adds instant style on desks and shelves, especially in bright, indirect light. If you want a low-maintenance plant that still feels like a statement, Raindrop Peperomia is a smart pick.
Distinctive Features
This peperomia is prized for its large, teardrop-shaped leaves with a smooth, shiny surface and a sturdy, upright habit. Leaves are thick and slightly succulent, helping the plant store water and handle occasional missed waterings better than many tropical houseplants. It typically grows as a compact plant, often staying around 8 to 12 inches tall indoors, with a tidy silhouette that does not sprawl. The overall look is bold and simple, with strong leaf form and glossy texture doing most of the design work.
Growing Conditions
- Sun: Bright, indirect light is ideal, and it tolerates medium light with slower growth.
- Soil: Fast-draining houseplant mix, and avoid heavy soils that stay wet.
- Water: Water when the top half of the pot dries, and do not let the plant sit in water.
- Humidity: Average home humidity is fine, and avoid placing it in the direct path of heating vents.
- USDA Zones: 10 to 12 as an outdoor plant, typically grown indoors in colder climates.
Ideal Uses
- Focal Point: Place on a tabletop where the bold leaf shape can stand out as a modern accent.
- Desktop Plant: Keep near a bright window for a tidy plant that stays compact and polished.
- Small Space Greenery: Fit into apartments and tight corners where larger plants feel too bulky.
- Plant Collections: Pair with trailing plants and textured foliage types for contrast in form and surface.
Low Maintenance Care
- Watering: Let soil dry partially between waterings, and avoid frequent small sips that keep the mix damp.
- Light Rotation: Rotate the pot occasionally to keep growth even and maintain a balanced shape.
- Feeding: Feed lightly in spring and summer with a diluted houseplant fertilizer.
- Potting: Use a container with drainage holes to keep roots healthy and prevent soggy soil.
Why Choose Raindrop Peperomia?
- Bold Leaf Shape: Teardrop leaves add instant style and a clean, modern look.
- Glossy Texture: Shiny foliage looks polished and stays attractive year-round.
- Easy Care Routine: Thick leaves help it handle occasional missed waterings.
- Compact Growth: Stays tidy for desks, shelves, and small indoor spaces.
Raindrop Peperomia is a great choice when you want a houseplant that looks sleek and stays easy to manage. Give it bright, indirect light, well-drained soil, and watering only after partial dry-down. With simple care, it stays compact, glossy, and eye-catching in any indoor space.

Three books in one....
Format: Paperback
This is a three books in one. Could You Survive The Cretaceous Period, Could You Survive The Jurassic Period, and Could You Survive The Ice Age? It’s a LOT of fun. The last book is, in fact, split into three stories. As you get to try to survive in North America, Europe, and Australia.
I enjoyed all the setting. Though I have to be honest I failed to return to the modern time from the Jurassic period. Trapped!!!! And…my friends in the book had a kid. I hope that does not destroy the timeline. But I enjoyed it. It reminded me a lot of the old Time Machine books.

They choose reading over screen time!
Format: Paperback
The nephews (10 & 8) love these kinds of books! I bought the prehistoric one as well and after they were done they swapped to continue their adventures! They're asking for more and choose the books over screen time! I'd say thats a win for the Aunt!

Awesome!
Format: Hardcover
This was an awesome book with a focus on friendship and family which isn't seen often enough in YA. If you liked Who's That Girl, you'll love this music infused book. I have a full review for this book posted on my blog: Reading, Writing, And Me.

She starts the book off fairly amusing and relateable with an excellent depiction of anxiety and paranoia
Format: Paperback
This was actually a 3.5 star read for me, but the more I pondered it over the two-day span between finishing it and reviewing it, I realized it wasn't quite remarkable enough for me to round up.
Here We Are Now tells the story of Taliah, a biracial white/Arabic teen who's never met her father. She's only working on an educated guess that he might be Julian Oliver, rockstar sensationalist, when the man shows up at her door one day to tell her that her assumptions were correct - and he wants to take her to meet his family, including his dying father.
Tal isn't the most enjoyable narrator in the beginning of the story. She starts the book off fairly amusing and relateable with an excellent depiction of anxiety and paranoia, but those feelings quickly morph into a level of snark and distrust that's not pleasant to read through. Despite the fact that Julian's entire existence points blatantly to a million lies Tal's mother has fed her throughout her life, Tal refuses to place any blame on her mother.
The nice thing about Taliah, however, is how much she grows; throughout the story, through a handful of "tough love" scenarios from multiple friends and family members, she learns that life isn't as black and white as she thinks it is. She grows to slowly trust people and open up, and is forced to come to terms with her unhealthy level of possessiveness over her best friend, Harlow.
The most unexpected thing about Here We Are Now was how quickly and how much I fell in love with Tal's father, Julian. From the opening of the story, I honestly expected him to be this flighty, dirtbag sort of stereotypical rockstar who would show up, get her hopes up, and then shatter her dreams a few times before disappearing again at the end of the book. That is totally not Julian at all, though.
From the beginning, he's awkward, uncertain, and a little bit shy about learning he's Taliah's father. I won't spoil the fine details for you, but we learn that Julian hasn't been half bad enough to deserve some of the events of the past, and he's actually a pretty well-meaning guy. His banter with Tal is so enjoyable, and I loved the way the we got to see the past through his memories, but they were written in Lena's (Tal's mother) perspectives.
Harlow is Tal's childhood best friend, who happens to be a lesbian. I loved the idea of Harlow to bits: she's obsessed with baking, she's sassy, she's proud of her sexuality, and she's got a good head on her shoulders. Unfortunately, her actual interactions with Tal and the other characters in the story are cringe-y most of the time, and her "tough love" spiel about not relying on only one person would have been a lot better if it hadn't been laced with her breaking a promise to Tal so she could hang out with her girlfriend.
The romance in this book was one hundred percent the biggest disappointment in the entire story. It felt so incredibly lackluster and out of place that I probably would have rounded up to 4 stars if I could have somehow gone through and edited out the entire existence of this friend-of-the-family character. He's not a bad kid, but it would be so nice to see a YA contemporary every now and then that doesn't end in a couple forming, and this book would have been perfect for that! Totally a missed opportunity.
First of all, I am not Muslim - or religious at all - and I cannot speak for how good this rep was. I do know, however, that Jasmine Warga identifies as a Middle Eastern/American woman, so the POC rep is own-voice and was so enjoyable to read. Tal's mother's perspectives frequently reflect on her Muslim beliefs and family, as well as how incredibly homesick she is for Jordan. She frets constantly that she is letting her parents down if she doesn't make a name for herself in the States, and there is even a solid bit of conversation about hijab-wearing and eating habits!
Of course, there is also the lesbian rep that I mentioned in Harlow's case, which I found really enjoyable. Harlow is out and proud and has no questions about her sexuality. There are no tropes, or painful moments we commonly see through queer characters in YA contemporary titles.
All in all, Here We Are Now was a fun read, but nothing spectacular. Had it not been for the romantic aspect, I would have given this 4 stars, but it was such a downer that I couldn't justify rounding up the rating. If you're looking for a fun YA contemporary story about family, with some nice diverse representation thrown in, or if you're already a Jasmine Warga fan, I'd recommend picking it up.
