A cousin of the wildly popular Watermelon Peperomia, this Peperomia version comes with oval leaves adorned with yellow and green stripes on a orangey-red stem.

Its growinghabit ensures that it looks great as a young and ageing plant: itsstems will grow upwards, only to fall down as they get heavy, creating a striking full cascading effect.
