Peperomia 'Green Bean'

Reflecting its playful name, Peperomia 'Green Bean' is an enchanting houseplant originating from South America. Its leaves bear an uncanny resemblance to fresh green beans, showcasing a lively hue of emerald green and a unique elongated shape that tapers to a point. This fascinating feature is complemented by the stems, which display a soft, subtle red, adding a delightful contrast to the plant's overall appearance. This little charmer stands about 8 inches tall and wide, but its cascading growth habit can make its presence felt well beyond its core dimensions. In a terrarium or small container, the Peperomia 'Green Bean' will fill the space with a dense foliage of vibrant leaves, creating a lush, tropical feel. Alternatively, when placed in a hanging basket or a pot with ample room, its stems will trail over the sides, creating a beautiful waterfall effect of cascading greenery. Despite its tropical origins, this plant is quite easy-going, adapting well to a variety of indoor environments and growing at a moderate pace. One of the most interesting aspects of the Peperomia 'Green Bean' is its flowering habit. During the late summer months, it produces small, nondescript flowers. These flowers may not be as showy as those of other houseplants, but they add a delicate, understated charm to the plant. They emerge on long, slender spikes, reaching up and out from the plant, adding an unexpected vertical element to its appearance. The Peperomia 'Green Bean' is not just a visual delight, but it's also a practical choice for those new to houseplants. It's quite forgiving and requires minimal care, making it an excellent option for both experienced and novice gardeners. The plant thrives in bright, indirect light and prefers to dry out a bit between waterings. It's also resistant to most common plant pests, making it a resilient and robust choice for any indoor garden. In a nutshell, the Peperomia 'Green Bean' is a houseplant that offers a unique aesthetic appeal, ease of care, and a lively pop of green that can brighten any indoor space. It's a plant that promises to be as enjoyable to care for as it is to look at, making it a perfect addition to your plant collection. Whether displayed in a hanging basket, a terrarium, or a tabletop pot, this delightful plant will surely add a touch of tropical charm to your home.

Plant sizing is based on the diameter of the nursery pot (2", 2.5", 3", 4" etc), not the plant itself. Plants may be slightly larger or smaller than the pot they are grow in depending on availability or time of year. While we do our best to ship plants as similar to those pictured as possible, please keep in mind that all plants are unique from one to the next, and display color, shape, and growth variation based on current environment, time of year, and other contributing factors. Please note that we ship our plants as dry as possible in the fall and winter months to prevent root rot or freezing. They will plump back up after planting!
