Botanical name: Capsicum
Capsicum (Capsicum)

Description

The Capsicum annuum plants grow up to 1.5 m high and grow as a bushy subshrub, but mostly stretched upwards. Near the root, the plants lignify relatively easily. The leaves are pointed towards the front, between 5 and 25 cm long and between 3 and 15 cm wide. || As with other cultivated Capsicum species within the Art Capsicum chinense by domestication and the associated long selection a great variability has arisen. Typically, a plant of the species is between 45 cm and 75 cm high, the shoot branches strongly and forms secondary shoots, giving the plant a broad, bushy appearance.
