Where do peppers grow on a plant?

Peppers grow on the stems of the plant, typically from the leaf axils, which are the spaces between the stems and the leaves.

Here's a breakdown:

* Stem: The main stalk of the pepper plant where the leaves, flowers, and fruit (peppers) develop.

* Leaf Axil: The point where a leaf grows from the stem. Flowers, and later peppers, typically appear in the leaf axils.

So, while peppers technically "grow" on the stem, they often develop from the leaf axils along the stem.
