- Botanical Name: Peperomia polybotrya
- Common Names: Peperomia Raindrop, coin plant, coin-leaf peperomia
- Description: The Raindrop Peperomia, scientifically known as peperomia polybotrya, is an easy-to-care-for, charming houseplant known for its fat, thick, shiny leaves that look like a raindrops. Native to South America’s tropical regions, this plant grows on the jungle floor and therefore likes similar house conditions: bright filtered light, and moderate temperatures with high humidity. Since they already store water in their leaves, it is easy to overwater these so err on the side of under watering when in doubt.
Peperomia Polybotrya "Raindrop" is a coin shaped compact peperomia with hard succulent-like leaf texture. It stays mini and can only reach the maximum height of one foot - perfect for apartment dwellers or plant lovers looking for forever compact plants.
