Peperomia undeninervia
A rarely collected Peruvian Peperomia, known from only a handful of herbarium specimens from the lower eastern Andean slopes of Junín and San Martín. One collector noted it as an epiphyte in tall, heavily shaded forest at about 550 m. Almost nothing is published on its ecology, so treat it like other warm, lowland rainforest epiphytic peperomias: deep shade, warmth, high humidity and an airy, quick-drying medium.
Where it grows wild
Herbarium labels describe it as an epiphyte in tall forest with a great deal of shade on the Amazonian foothills of the Peruvian Andes. No other habitat detail has been published.
The few labelled specimens were collected at about 550 m (Tocache, San Martín) and 680 m (Colonia Perené, Junín), in the warm premontane forest zone.
