Peperomia Hope is a hybrid plant between Peperomia Quadrifolia and Peperomia Eppeana. The Hope variety is very popular for its foliage and its habit. Indeed, the stems look wonderful in a hanging pot or on a climbing plant arrangement. We love it for its small, round, green and fleshy leaves. It appreciates bright light, but without direct sunlight, as this causes its foliage to fade. Also, it fears excess water and prefers to be cramped in its pot.
