Peperomia
houseplantPeperomia is a genus of over 1,000 species of compact perennial shrubs and vines in the Piperaceae family, found throughout tropical and subtropical regions worldwide with greatest diversity in Central and South America. These plants display remarkable variety, from delicate paper-thin-leaved species to succulent xerophytes with thick waxy leaves, many preferring filtered or indirect bright light to avoid sunburn.
Well-draining soil is essential to prevent root rot. Many species have minimal root systems and are sensitive to overwatering.
