Schinus molle, commonly known as the Pepper Tree or Peruvian Pepper Tree, is a fast-growing evergreen tree native to South America. Typically growing 8 to 15 meters tall, it has a broad, spreading canopy with long, feathery, pinnate leaves that give it a delicate appearance. The tree produces clusters of small, white flowers followed by pink, peppercorn-like berries. Schinus molle thrives in well-drained soils and full sun, and is drought-tolerant once established. Known for its aromatic foliage, it is often used in landscaping for shade, ornamental purposes, and as a screen, but can be invasive in some regions.
