Peperomia rotundifolia, also known as jade necklace, trailing jade, creeping buttons and round leaf Peperomia, is a trailing plant species of peperomia native to the tropical rainforest of South America. The first European to describe it was Carl von Linné, and got its current name from Carl Sigismund Kunth. [1]
It is sometimes called the jade peperomia. [2] The artificial hybrid variety Peperomia 'Hope' (a cross between P. deppeana and P. quadrifolia) [3] shares a superficial similarity with P. boivinii and these two are sometimes mixed. However, P. boivinii is clearly more of a succulent variety with stockier and thicker leaves.
This is the case, for example, with Peperomia orba (often sold as Peperomia 'Pixie'), Peperomia viridis, and Peperomia axillaris. In addition to natural species and their cultivars, some artificial hybrid varieties can also be found on the market, such as Peperomia 'Hope' (a cross between P. deppeana and P. quadrifolia). [20]
