While production is said to benefit from having a male and female plants, almost all plants produce both fruit and seeds.

Awesome Shrub/Tree!

The plants arrived in a very well packed boxes. I ordered 3 of these a couple years ago and they have already quadrupled in size and started producing peppercorns. They are hardy and have held up well to cold snaps, so I decided to buy 4 more. Hoping to prune them all into small trees.

Great plant

The plant arrived in a very well packed box. It was in good condition, bigger than I expected.

After taken it out of the box and placed by the window, it has been thriving: green leaves start growing, small branches begin forming and the tinny little peppers are appearing as well. I am very happy with the purchase. Thank you rain-tree nursery!
