Peperomia prostrata

---

Peperomia prostrata quite possibly my favorite miniature plant. This small Peperomia produces thick fleshy leaves that are ground and have small white veins and dark markings. The plant grows by sending out small vine like stems that attach to any moist growing area or can hang over out of pots. Most leaves are under a quarter of and inch wide. It makes for a great terrarium plant or as a ground cover for other tropical plants. It can climb if in humid conditions and often shingles up as it grows.

The plants offered were grown and are very well rooted in 2 1/2 to 3 inch pots.
