Description
This pretty ornamental pepper is a keen climber and is happy about climbing aids on which it can grow. Alternatively, it can also be cultivated in a hanging basket. Its stems are covered with fine hairs and its silvery-white leaf markings, which are even more striking in mature plants, make it a real feast for the eyes.

Ben's care tips:
• We recommend keeping the cutting in moist sphagnum moss until it has rooted. Then it can be potted in the soil recommended under the point substrate.
• Location/light requirements: bright, but avoid direct sunlight.
• Substrate: Ben's premium sphagnum moss, well-drained, nutrient-poor soil
• Temperature: optimal at 23-26° C (day), 18-20° C (night)
• Watering: Keep the substrate constantly moist and water with low-lime, lukewarm water, but avoid waterlogging.
• Humidity: requires moderately high humidity, spray regularly (leaves should be allowed to dry afterwards!)
• Nutrient addition: In spring/summer, moderately every 4-6 weeks with liquid fertilizer.
• Repot about every 1-2 years when the plant has doubled in size.
