Attractive SE Asian relative of Black Pepper - the leaves are called "pan" and are chewed with Betel Nuts (Areca catechu) to enhance their stimulant effect. Betel leaves are used as an antiseptic and breath freshener, although the red stained teeth and high incidence of oral cancers of regular users might outweigh the benefits. Easily grown tropical foliage plant. 4" pots.
