Name Story

The Latin name Peperomia caperata is an amalgam of two Greek words. The word "peperi" means pepper, and the word "homoios" means resembling. Emerald Ripple Peperomia is related to Piper nigrum, otherwise known as Black Pepper.

Trailing Jade: As its scientific name suggests, Trailing Jade (Peperomia rotundifolia) is a member of the pepper family. Rotundiflora translates directly as “round leaves.”

Feng Shui

The Peperomia plant is considered lucky because it is easy to cultivate and maintain, and because its big, broad leaves resemble coins.
