Bush Pepper (Kutti Kurumulaku) – Fruit, Ornamental & Medicinal Live Plant

The Bush Pepper (Piper nigrum), commonly known in Malayalam as Kutti Kurumulaku, is a compact and versatile version of the traditional pepper vine. Unlike the climbing pepper plant, this bush form is cultivated in pots or grow bags, making it ideal for home gardens, balconies, and terrace cultivation. It is prized not only for its culinary value but also for its ornamental and medicinal uses, offering multiple benefits in a single plant.

Other Common Names & Scientific Name

The Bush Pepper is widely recognized by names such as Black Pepper Plant, Kutti Kurumulaku (Malayalam), Milagu (Tamil), and Kali Mirch (Hindi). Its scientific name is Piper nigrum. This plant has been used for centuries as a spice, medicine, and even as a valuable trade commodity across the globe. It remains a “King of Spices” due to its pungent, aromatic fruits that enhance flavor and improve health.

Why Choose Bush Pepper for Your Garden?

Bush Pepper is an excellent choice for home gardeners who want to enjoy fresh spices from their own plants. Unlike the large vines, this compact plant does not require much space, making it suitable for urban gardens and patios. It provides a continuous harvest of pepper berries, which can be processed into black, white, or green pepper depending on the treatment. The plant is also an attractive ornamental shrub, adding lush green foliage and clusters of pepper fruits that bring vibrancy to any space.

Where to Use Bush Pepper in Landscaping
