Peperomia clusiifolia 'Jellie'
(Syn.: Peperomia clusiifolia 'Tricolor'), Variegated Red Edge Peperomia
|
|
$15.95

This is one of the showiest peperomias. The thick reddened stems are adorned with striking succulent leaves of green, cream, and rosy-pink, bordered with red margins. It's a compact grower making it ideal for the house or greenhouse. Grow it in bright light for best coloring, but not direct sunlight. This easy plant should be grown in potting soil that drains well and only watered when the top of the soil is dry. It's very sensitive to water-logged soil and does best if slightly pot-bound. Feed monthly with a balanced liquid fertilizer. It produces greenish-white flower spikes, which can be pruned off to make a tidier plant. The parent species to this cultivar is native to the West Indies and Venezuela. USDA zones 10b - 11. Piperaceae

Peperomia perciliata
Trailing Jade
|
|
$9.95
|
This unique peperomia has oval, thick succulent green leaves with subtle light green stripes and stems of pinkish-orange. The small leaves grow in clusters of three or four as the stems grow. Flowers are insignificant. With its compact size, it grows about 2" high and stems about 12" long. This is an easy houseplant, and with its trailing habit, it makes an attractive hanging basket. It's also a fine choice for a terrarium or for hanging as an epiphyte. It's best to keep the shallow roots semi-moist, but it should not be over-watered. Give it bright indirect light, but no direct sunlight. This species looks very much like the cultivar Peperomia 'Hope', which some people regard as a questionable hybrid. Piperaceae

Peperomia polybotrya
Coin Leaf Peperomia, Raindrop Peperomia, Coin Plant.
|
|
$9.95
|
The Raindrop Peperomia is an easy to grow tropical house plant with thick, glossy green, teardrop-shaped leaves. It's a compact plant growing upright to about 12 inches high. Give it bright indirect light and warmth. Too little light and it will get leggy. It's crucial that it has a well-draining potting soil, as it does not like to be overwatered. Also, it is best to keep under-potted and be sure to let the soil dry out a bit between waterings. Because of its tropical Colombia and Peru origin, it's only suitable to be grown outdoors if you have warmth and humidity. USDA zones 10 - 12.

Peperomia prostrata
String of Turtles, Creeping Peperomia
|
|
$15.95
|
This is a favorite miniature plant that creeps along the ground creating a dense mat. It can even climb up a small support. The tiny ½ inch round succulent leaves have a mottled pattern of lighter green veins. Great for a hanging basket, terrarium, vivarium, small dish garden, or shingling up a damp moss pole. It prefers moderate bright shade, moisture, and humid conditions. It won't tolerate waterlogged soils, so water lightly when the soil is dry and give it gritty, well-drained soil. Roots as it spreads and is fairly fast growing with a height of about 1 inch. Native to Brazilian rainforests where it is often found growing on trees and rocks as an epiphyte. USDA zones 9 - 11. Sometimes confused with Peperomia rotundifolia, which is a different species with all green leaves. During shipping a few leaves may drop off since they break easily but will quickly regrow. So, be extra careful unpacking. (B, M, T, F, H) Piperaceae
