Peperomia columbiana
Peperomia columbiana is a compact and eye-catching houseplant grown for its thick, succulent-like foliage, featuring rich green upper surfaces contrasted by deep red undersides. Its naturally tidy growth habit and colourful foliage make it an excellent choice for shelves, desks, or smaller indoor spaces where a subtle but distinctive plant is desired.
Easy to care for and well suited to modern interiors, this Peperomia thrives in bright, indirect light and requires only moderate watering thanks to its moisture-storing leaves. Ideal for beginners or collectors alike, it works beautifully as part of mixed plant displays, adding texture and colour without demanding high maintenance.
