Identifying a Houseplant? (Peperomia)

Identifying a HouseplantI need help identifying this houseplant. I received it as a gift in the summer. But, unfortunately there were spiders living in it and the plant was slowly dying. I really like the look of this plant and it was pretty easy to care for.

I believe it to be either (1) a "baby" (miniature) rubber plant or (2) a "ZZ" plant. Leaning toward the former. Very pretty! Good luck with it.

I believe it is in the peperomia plant family. Not sure of the exact name is as so many look very similar.

The ones that look similar to me; Peperomia magnoliifolia, Peperomia diffusa, Peperomia orba - Teardrop Peperomia, Here are some photos but wait a few seconds for an individual plant to appear.

Here is a link on caring for any of these types.

The leaves in front look like a jade plant.

I do not believe a jade plant has a tall "growth" from stems and the leaves are usually very thick but the Baby Rubber Plant could be possible but I believe the leaves on the baby rubber plant may be rounder and may be fatter than this but it is usually shown along with peperomia so it would probably need the same type of care.
