Peperomia pseudosalicifolia
A Peruvian peperomia described by Trelease from Macbride's 1923 collections in Huánuco at about 1200 m. Its name compares it with P. salicifolia, suggesting narrow, willow-like leaves. Nothing on habitat or habit is published beyond this, so grow it as a warm, humid premontane forest plant and treat these targets as estimates.
Where it grows wild
Premontane forest in the Huánuco region of the eastern Peruvian Andes. The specimens give no microhabitat, so it is unknown whether it grows on the ground, on rocks or as an epiphyte.
Two duplicate specimens from 1923 record about 1200 m.
