Peperomia trianae is a species of epiphyte subshrub in the genus Peperomia.[1][2] It primarily grows on wet tropical biomes.[1] Its Conservation Status is Not Threatened.[3]
It was described in 1899 by Casimir de Candolle in "Anales del Instituto Físico-Geográfico y del Museo Nacional de Costa Rica", from collected specimens by Henri François Pittier in 1895.[1][4] It gets its name from Tsaki, where first specimens were collected.[4]
