Peperomia Hope
Peperomia Hope is a hybrid between two other species of Peperomia: Peperomia Quadrifolia and Peperomia Deppeana. This variety is a low growing plant whose stems trail as they grow- making them ideal for hanging baskets or trailing off the edge of shelves. They are semi-succulents, which explains their shiny, waxy leaves and easy-going temperament. Due to their compact size, the Peperomia Hope plant can be easily incorporated into your home or office space.
