		During the next couple of years more sorts of Peperomia were added and we were able to offer our customers a wide variety of different looking Peperomia.
		Through the years hundreds of sorts of Peperomia have been tested in our nurseries and we are still working today to find new sorts of Peperomia, which are suitable as ornamental plants.

	How to take cuttings from peperomia houseplant
		There are about a dozen types of peperomias usually available and they can be easily split into two groups: variegated and non-variegated varieties.
		The cuttings of most varieties of peperomia can be placed three to a 87mm (3½ in.) pot or spaced 25 mm (1 in.) apart in a large seedtray.
		As peperomias do not make a lot of root growth those plants already in separate 87mm (3½ in.) pots should stay there until showing clear signs of outgrowing the pot.
