Notes:
Chili Pepper is a perennial plant, that however often in cultivation behaves like an annual—that is, it dies after one year of life. It arrived in Europe in year 1514, together with the larger Pepper, from Mexico, where they were both cultivated since the pre-Columbian age. A Toltec myth says that god Tezcatlipoca first appeared to his future bride, the daughter of serpent Quetzalcoatl, disguised as a Chili Pepper seller. The plant contains Capsine, which stimulates blood circulation, liver and kidney activity, and digestion. It is dangerous to diabetics.
