Could you tell me more about the plant Peperomia? We recieved it at work and the leaves are similar looking to the variegation in a vinca vine and seem to grow like one but have a succulent feel to them. Is this a houseplant? Does it flower?

This sounds like Peperomia obtusifolia, a great house plant for a spot that is bright but in indirect light. Here is information about it and a photo to make sure it is the same plant. You may need to cut and paste the complete url into your browser to make it work correctly.
