Peperomia fraseri, also known as the flowering pepper, is a plant species belonging to the Peperomia genus in the Piperaceae family. It is native to Colombia and Peru, but has been introduced to Ecuador and Guatemala. This small shrub has glossy green leaves with distinct venation and produces unique white bottle-brush flowers on a reddish peduncle. Unlike other Peperomia species, which have inconspicuous flower spikes, Peperomia fraseri stands out with its fragrant and eye-catching inflorescence.
