Ciao Alessio,
il Black Prince è considerato un peperoncino ornamentale ma è anche commestibile. Come tutti i peperoncini ama posizioni esposte al sole e riparate dal vento. Inizia a fiorire in primavera e i frutti maturano fino a un bel rosso brillante nell arco di 2-3 mesi. Finchè le temperature non scendono sotto lo zero la pianta continuerà a produrre.
