Young leaves make a pleasant pepper substitute in pepper-restricted diets. They have unusually high vitamin C content. Immature green seeds can substitute for capers, and in tossed salads flowers add an interesting touch. Climber with strong vines up to 2m/6ft high; for trellises, fences or poles. Spicy fragrance and gorgeous mix of colours.
