Peperomia sirindhorniana

A small, clump-forming Peperomia described in 2016 from shaded limestone mountains in north-east Thailand. It has red stems, fleshy stolons and wavy-edged, heart-shaped leaves 2–4 cm long. It is recorded as an annual that flowers and fruits in the late monsoon, from August to December, and resembles the weedy Peperomia pellucida. In a terrarium, expect a short-lived plant that is best kept going from its sticky seed or stolons.
