#i also mixed in some water from my semi hydro pothos to hopefully stimulate root growth

Welcoming Pepperoni Pete to my family!

This handsome guy is a cutting impulsively taken from my friends red log pepperomia while they were moving.

I only had what soil they had available and an old pudding jar.

I let mr Pete stay in a window while I was visiting, then transported him back in my car, I genuinely wasn't sure how he'd handle it all but he actually managed to grow some roots in the course of just a few days!

So when we got home, I took him out of the placeholder soil (not aerated enough and since the jar I have him in cant drain easily I knew I needed a different option)

I cleaned some perlite (shockingly rice Krispy treat esq) and set him up to grow out his roots before I repot him!

Here's hoping our little guy thrives!
