## Description

Black Pearl Hot Pepper. 2006 AAS Winner. The first completely black-leafed pepper. A great choice for containers or planting in the garden. Foliage turns from greenish to glossy black with maturity, aided by the sun and heat. Very shiny black fruit matures dark red. Very, Very hot! 14 to 18 inches high, spreading 12 to 16 inches. Grow as an ornamental or in the vegetable garden or both! HOT PEPPERS: When Wilbur Scoville first devised a means to test the heat of peppers, his hottest entry then came in at 20,000 units. Habanero and Thai chilies can go as high as 60,000. Compare that to the sweet bell pepper at zero. When hot peppers are consumed, capsaicinoids bind with pain receptors in the mouth and throat that are responsible for sensing heat. Once activated by the capsaicinoids, these receptors send a message to the brain that the person has consumed something hot. The brain responds to the burning sensation by raising the heart rate, increasing perspiration and release of endorphins. Hot peppers should be eaten with caution!

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pleasantly Surprised
*by T***I on July 3, 2021*

I was disappointed initially--the plant arrived and it was super scrawny. It has been planted for a couple of months now and it is really thriving! I have a few blooms and expect to see some peppers any day now.I love the unique color and it's a fun plant to have on the patio. I have wanted an ornamental pepper plant for a long time but always seem to look for them when they are "out of season" at Home Depot so I took a risk and purchased this one on Amazon. I'M GLAD I DID!FYI: I live in Zone 9 and planted the peppers in May. It's July now and we've had temperatures in the 100s F. I water the plant once a day and it spends a lot of time in direct sunlight. I plan to bring it indoors this winter and will put it back outside when it's warm enough at night.
