Summary

Some early attempts to graft black pepper are described. Good unions have formed between different clones of Piper nigrum L., and between different species of Piper grown in a glasshouse in the United Kingdom. The structure of pepper stems is considered in relation to the apparent impermanence, in the tropics, of unions that initially appear to be successful.
