These beautiful natives are sure to put a PEPP in your step…
An evergreen shrub, Tasmanian Pepperberry is native to the woodlands and cool temperate rainforests of the Australian south-eastern regions. Come Spring, this hardy native will sprout yellow/creamy white flowers that turn into red pepper berries over the Autumn season if both the male and female are kept together. Both the leaves and berries pair well with curries, cheese, salad dressings and sauces providing a delicious spicy flavour. Simply harvest and enjoy!
You'll need both male and female plants to harvest fruits.
