Black Pearl Ornamental Pepper Plants for Sale Online
The Black Pearl Ornamental Pepper is a beautiful plant with black leaves. The Black Pearl looks better as the summer season progresses because the plant branches out, producing more clusters of black, pearl-like, peppers. The plant develops into a black pyramid shape without any pinching, pruning, or grooming.
Even though the peppers are edible, they are very hot. Use them with caution! The truly Black foliage is very trendy and stands up to even the hottest sun. The Black Pearl is an effective thriller plant, particularly when planted with silver, white, or pastel flowering annuals in the container.
