One of the best bush foods, it is also a beautiful ornamental with its glossy green aromatic leaves and fluffy white flower heads. Whilst it is capable of growing into a small to medium sized tree, it can be kept as a shrub through regular pruning of the growing tips. This also serves to harvest the plant for its culinary uses for flavouring all sorts of dishes. Plant in a sunny spot with well drained soil and feed and water regularly during the warmer months to give yourself plenty of shoots. A rainforest tree from north NSW and south Queensland. Can take light frosts, but foliage will be damaged.

Mountain Pepper is an evergreen shrub often used as a culinary spice. It can be found in Aboriginal cuisine as a food flavouring, as well as in traditional medicine as a treatment for skin disorders, venereal diseases, colic and stomach ache. It is native to the woodlands and cool temperate rainforests of Australia’s south-eastern region.

In the Spring, Mountain Pepper produces small yellow or creamy white flowers that turn into red pepper berries over the Autumn season if both male and female plants are present. These berries eventually turn black when they ripen. Both leaves and berries may be used fresh or dried to add a spicy, peppery flavour to curries, cheese, salad dressings and sauces. Flowers may be enjoyed fresh in salads, or as a pretty, peppery garnish for a variety of sweet and savoury dishes. Dried berries make a pungent native substitute for black pepper. They may be kept fresh for longer in the freezer.

It is best to have a male and female plant.
