I was going to say, I think that it has to be via cuttings. Unless we can grow the pepper corns.

I got them from Reimer Seeds (http://www.reimerseeds.com/peppercorns-black-pepper.aspx)..

(Honestly I cannot start anything where I am just now and those 3 stupid loquats along with the sugar cane I started that insisted on coming up are pushing the limits already. Darn, I need my own dirt--ages ago.)
Good luck with your crop! Keep us posted! (I know you will.)
