Peperomia caperata 'Quito'
Peperomia caperata 'Quito' is a captivating and exotic houseplant, prized for its deeply textured, heart-shaped leaves. The foliage is a rich, deep orange- burgundy, almost velvety in appearance, with a subtle metallic sheen that catches the light beautifully.
The leaves are marked by prominent, rippling veins that add to the plant’s sculptural quality, making it a standout in any indoor setting.
