West Dean Gardens near Singleton, West Sussex.
A gloriously sunny but unseasonably chilly early autumn day walking around West Dean Gardens. Too early for autumn leaf colour, but the perennials were still full of colour. There were apples and pears on the trees in the orchards ... berries ... bees, butterflies and birds.
Peperomia is one of the two large genera of the family Piperaceae. It is estimated that there are at least over 1,000 species, occurring in all tropical and subtropical regions of the world. They are concentrated in South and Central America, but may also be found in southern North America, the Caribbean islands, Africa, Oceania, and southern and eastern parts of Asia.
Peperomia polybotrya, commonly known as raindrop peperomia or raindrop plant, is a species native to Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru.
It grows in a small tree-like form, reaching 30 to 40 cm tall, with petioles forming "branches" ending in large succulent and glossy teardrop-shaped peltate leaves (petiole attached in the centre). It is considered easy to grow as a houseplant. The flowers appear as greenish white slender spikes.
