Peperomia Ecuador

The Peperomia ‘Ecuador’ is a rare, compact variety admired for its lush, rippled leaves that shimmer with silver stripes and deep green to purple undertones. Its trailing stems create a dense, cascading form perfect for hanging baskets, shelves, or terrariums. Native to the Andean cloud forests, this variety thrives in humid, bright, indirect light conditions and adds a soft, elegant texture to any indoor jungle.

An excellent choice for collectors or anyone looking for a pet-safe, low-maintenance foliage plant with distinctive, eye-catching color.
