Peperomia bicolor
What a pretty plant! What I received looks just like the pictures. The reddish color at the base of the leaves almost glows. I have it planted in my vivarium (in ABG) at the base of a large cork log, so hopefully it will climb in due time. After just under two weeks, I can already see some growth. Very cool!
