A common name for this is "emerald ripple peperomia", Cinderella. Readily available as houseplants. :-)

Yes I have seen them about. I take it this was in the glasshouse then.

Yes. I love the underplanting around the taller shrubs and trees.

They look great ,Plants look much more effective when you have them in large groups to show them off, I'm sure I've got some of those background plants in my greenhouse I can't remember off hand what they are called !

Perhaps they will have some for sale in the upcoming monthly plant sales, Lori. Never know what there is going to be for sale at these.

Must go off to prepare dinner, now. Just got back from a few days in Yorkshire today, and so the crew is hungry!!

XXX from us.
