This is a black pepper (not chili) plant. Because Brendan loves peppercorns and I’m curious to see if we can grow it. It’s a tropical plant so we’ll need to find a warm home for it in winter.

@deirdres I'm curious -- do you know what you have to do to the berries after they are picked to turn them into black peppercorns?

I assume you have to dry them at least.

@owenhollands have not looked in detail yet, it will be a few years before this plant produces any
