Black Pepper Plants do best when grown on a pole or a trellis.
The vines can also provide cover on a fence, or shade on an overhead arbor. They have attractive, deep green leaves and the fruit hangs on long stems. They are fast-growing, like full to partial sun, and can fruit in their first year.Black Pepper Plants are easy to grow vines that can be planted in the ground in USDA Zones 9 to 11, and in pots in Zones 4 to 11.
