Brazilian Peppers Chris Cardino

PICTURE OF THE BRAZILIAN PEPPER

Information Also known as Florida Holly, this large shrub or tree is one of South Florida's nastiest pests. Grows to 20 feet, produces large quantities of red berries. Fruit is distributed by birds and raccoons. Can be found at the edges of freshwater wetlands, in pine rocklands, along margins of hammocks and along coastal areas. Native to Brazil.

Picture of the Brazilian Pepper

 Brazilian peppers (Schinus terebinthifolius) are large multi-trunk shrubs that can grow 40 feet tall.  They are evergreens with glossy, bright green leaves, nonleathery in texture. When crushed, the leaves smell like turpentine.  The leaves are "compound," meaning there are several leaflets arranged opposite each other on one stem. "Simple" leaf arrangement means one leaf on one stem.  Female Brazilian pepper trees produce sprays of small yellowish-white flowers in spring, followed by clusters of small red berries in late fall. How To Identify Brazilian Peppers

They kill other vegetation by forming dense thickets and by chemically suppressing the growth of understory plants.  They cut down on kinds and total numbers of wildlife by destroying their usual food and shelter.  They hurt shorelines by disturbing natural fish-breeding habitat. They crowd out valuable mangroves. Their shallow roots allow erosion.  They are members of the same family as poison ivy, poison oak, and poison sumac. Any part of the plant can cause skin irritation in some people EFFECTS OF BRAZILIAN PEPPERS
