Apart from India, black pepper is widely
cultivated throughout Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, tropica
Africa, Brazil, Sri Lanka, Vietnam and China also. It is a
branching vine with a smooth, woody, articulate stem swollen
at the joints. A woody climber, it may reach heights of 10m
by means of its aerial roots. Its broad, shiny green, pointed
, petiolate leaves are alternately arranged. The sessile,
white, small flowers are borne in pendulous, dense, slender
spikes of about 50 blossoms each. The berry-like fruits, or
peppercorns, are round, about 0.5 - 1.0 cm in diameter and
contain a single seed. They become yellowish red at maturity
and bear a single seed. The odour is penetrating and aromatic;
the taste is hot, biting and very pungent. |
