| + | Piper nigrum, Linn. Black Pepper. Plant woody below: st. strong, terete, emitting roots, tall-climbing, glabrous: lvs. thickish, stalked, broadly ovate-oblong or nearly orbicular, the base usually rounded and oblique, 5-9-nerved above the base, the nerves alternate: fls. sometimes polygamous but usually dioecious: fr. globose, red. Old World tropics, but now widely dispersed in warm countries.—Sometimes grown in hothouses, particularly amongst collections of economic plants. In the wild it is a strong climber, rooting at the nodes, sometimes reaching 20 ft. in height. It is reported as hardy at Santa Barbara, blooming but not fruiting. The dried berries, which are collected before ripe, are black and wrinkled, and constitute the black pepper of commerce. When the outer skin is removed from the ripe fruit, the product is white pepper. The commercial pepper comes mostly from eastern tropics. |
