Peperomia emarginella "Ecuador"

Peperomia emarginella is a very popular vivarium species, especially for miniature lovers! This plant hails from Ecuador and is a mat forming vine. This plant has round green leaves that are extremely small. It is easily broken apart but can bounce back quickly. It does well in moderate, indirect light and moderate to high humidity. It is best grown epiphytically. Moist soil and sphagnum moss are helpful for rooting this species.

All of our cuttings have adventitious, aerial roots. Our rooted specimens will have at least a few active roots and will be established plants. Our plants are grown in high humidity in terrariums and greenhouses, therefore may need acclimation to the average home humidity / environment. Please contact us for acclimation information if you are not planning to use this plant in a terrarium, greenhouse, or humid room.
