Appearance: The Peperomia Hope features small, round, succulent-like leaves that grow in clusters of three or four along its trailing stems. The leaves are a vibrant green with a slightly translucent quality, creating a lush and cascading effect that is perfect for hanging baskets or as a tabletop plant.
