Peperomia micromerioides

Peperomia micromerioides is an obscure Ecuadorian Peperomia with no wild records carrying coordinates; its name suggests small, Micromeria-like leaves. The one measured site on the eastern Andean slope at about 1,200 m is mild and wet all year. Treat it as a small humid-terrarium plant.

Where it grows wild

Probably a small creeping plant of moist montane forest. No species-specific habitat notes were reachable; this is inferred from the measured site and the genus.

The measured site sits at about 1,200 m; the true elevation range is unknown.
