Allspice plant

Allspice thrives as a container plant or indoor or greenhouse cultivation. Its delicate flowers are clustered in large groups, followed by the development of small fruits that mature into a purple-black color.

The dried seeds of allspice serve as a popular flavoring in a wide range of dishes. Additionally, oil extracted from the seeds, leaves, and bark is used to add fragrance to cosmetics, foods, and various other products. The primary oil obtained from allspice is eugenol, which is the same aromatic oil found in cloves.

Mature allspice trees can tolerate only brief periods of light frost!
