Monk's Pepper in Vitex Berry
The monk's pepper is native to Southern Europe and West Africa and has spread from there throughout the Mediterranean and the warmer regions of Africa, Asia and America. In the Netherlands, the beautiful shrub is sometimes planted in ornamental gardens. In our climate, the plant does need a sheltered spot. And in a severe winter, it can certainly use extra protection against the cold. The shrub is very aromatic and grows to a height of 3 to 7 metres. Grey leaves grow on the stems. The pink to purple flowers appear in the summer. In the autumn, the shrub bears berries. The berries have an aromatic, peppermint-like scent and a peppery flavour. The berries have been used in herbal recipes since ancient times. The most important active ingredients are iridoid glycosides, including agnuside and aucubine.
