Dorrigo Pepper Berry Female 20cm

Dorrigo Pepper (Female) is a highly aromatic Australian native shrub prized for its glossy foliage and edible peppery berries, which can be dried and used as a native spice with a unique, spicy-savoury flavour. In spring to summer, it produces small white flowers that develop into dark purple berries—provided a male plant is nearby for pollination. Ideal for native gardens, bushfood landscapes, or as an ornamental screen, it thrives in part shade to full sun with protection from extreme frost. Prefers moist, well-drained soils and regular watering during dry periods.

Pollination: Berries ripen in summer provided a male plant is nearby for pollination

Size: Grows up to 3–5m high and 2–3m wide
