The slender fruits have a very long record as the fine, drying peppers of the warm lands, and the plant is a historic presence of the warm kitchen garden. It is a plant of the open, sunny, deep, rich, moist, well-drained ground.
Scientific Research & Plant Biotechnology
The De Arbol pepper is a historic subject of the plant science, and the star-shaped flowers keep showing up in the work on the drying peppers. The way the small, white, star-shaped flowers form along the open, airy stems has been studied closely, and it keeps appearing in the studies of the drying peppers, the pointed leaves and the members of the nightshade family. The slender fruits and the open habit have also made it a fine study herb, and the De Arbol pepper is a regular subject of the work on the star-shaped flowers of the warm world.
Ecological & Economic Value & Wide Applications

It is one of the fine choices for the warm kitchen garden, the drying row and the study collection, and it has been written about in the culinary and the horticultural papers for the slender fruits and the very long history. It is a fine, useful plant of the open, sunny, deep, rich, moist, well-drained garden.
The De Arbol seeds germinate readily in a light, sandy loam kept warm and moist. The young plants are fast and wiry, and they appreciate the deep, rich ground of the warm border.
To grow the De Arbol pepper from seed, sow the small, flat seeds directly over the surface of the shallow tray of light, sandy loam, water gently, then keep the tray in a bright, warm spot.
