Peperomia rotundifolia, commonly called round-leaf peperomia, creeping buttons, or trailing jade, is a charming tropical epiphyte prized for its delicate, coin-shaped succulent foliage cascading along slender 12-inch vines. Native to Central and South America, this adaptable houseplant thrives in cooler indoor environments with bright, indirect light and consistently moist, well-drained soil. Growth is gradual—expect two to five years to reach full maturity—making it an ideal choice for patient gardeners seeking a low-maintenance trailing accent for shelves, hanging baskets, or terrariums.
