Have Black Pearl Ornamental Pepper seeds

15 years ago

The foliage of Black Pearl Ornamental Pepper is initially green with dark veins and matures into a shade of black

with silvery green undertones. Purple blossoms yield small oval black peppers that eventually turn a stunning red contrasted by dark foliage. Click here to view pictures. I grew four of these from seed and wasn't sure if I should invest time in an ornamental pepper. Glad that I did because it's very unusual and beautiful, always getting compliments from neighbors.

I have several seeds that I've collected from mature fruit that were grown isolated from other peppers. Those who have grown this pepper in warmer zones said it will self sow.

Typical of peppers, it takes a while to mature (100+ days) but has an excellent germination rate. I also have two potted plants if you're interested in trading for iris or daylily.

I'm looking for the following seeds:

Lagurus ovatus, Ornamental Grass, "Bunny Tails"

Anything ornamental that grows in part or full shade in zone 5

Heirloom tomatoes:

Kellogs Breakfast

Russo Sicilian Toggeta

San Marzano Redorta

Opalka

Sweet 100

Any unusual basil like lime or cinnamon

Thanks,

Jennifer

I would be interested in both the black pearl pepper seeds and the white hibiscus and the white swamp mallow from your list. Please look at my list to see if there is anything you would like. I also have (not listed) a variegated pepper plant with purple peppers on it. I've never grown hot peppers before so am not sure when to harvest the seeds . . Becky ramazz

Hi there!
I'm interested in your Black Pearl Ornamental Pepper and "Tuscan" Kale.

I've got lemon, lime and cinnamon basil available. Please email me if you're interested in a trade. I'd be happy to send some of all three.

Thanks!
