Each 'flower' is actually a cluster of many tiny, individual blooms, attracting more pollinators.

Its small, round fruits change from green to dark purple when ripe, signaling they are ready for dispersal!

Rubbing its leaves releases a distinct, strong scent, often described as citrusy or peppery.
