Peperomia 'Hovaria', most likely a hybrid or cultivar of Peperomia incana (Haw.) Hook. (not confirmed) It is a beautiful succulent plant that produces long branched and fleshy stems with large, round leaves of a greyish-green colour, that are slightly concave, covered with a soft down.

Genus name comes from the Greek words peperi meaning pepper and homoios meaning resembling. The plants resemble, and are closely related to, true black pepper (Piper nigrum).
