How to Grow and Care for Pepper elder

Pepper elder, also known as Clearweed, Silver bush, Rat ear, Vietnamese crab claw, Càng cua

Pepper elder is a tropical plant known for its easy-care nature, thriving in warm and humid environments with bright, indirect light. Key care points include maintaining consistent moisture without waterlogging the soil and providing a well-draining potting mix. Special care should be taken to avoid cold drafts and to ensure the plant is not exposed to direct sunlight, which can scorch the delicate leaves.
