Got this plant from the local market last night. It was in a basket, with a golden pothos. The floral dept manager said it has been dropping leaves since the weather turned cold (floral dept is near the front doors). It was marked $14.99, but she told me if I would take it home and care for it, she would sell the whole basket to me for 99 cents. Of course, I took it.

Upon getting it home I took it and the pothos out of the basket and found each of them in 3 inch deep plastic trays. The Peperomia was sitting in about 2 inches of water. No wonder it was feeling ill !!

I have looked online to find care instructions and what I'm finding is very vague. Will someone please tell me how to care for this plant. Light/Water/Fertilizer, etc. I'm gonna put it in the ICU but I need to know what medical care to give. Thanks in advance.
