A Peperomia with a difference. The Happy Bean houseplant has uniquely shaped long, slender leaves that somewhat resemble green beans – but please don’t try to eat them!
Also known as the Pincushion Peperomia, this wonderful houseplant will grow bushy and upright if trained, or it’s spiralling and twisted stems can be left to their own devices creating a haphazard, unruly freestyle effect.
Please note: the stems and leaves on this plant are very fragile and despite our best efforts, some may drop during transit.
