Capers are the edible flower buds that grow on a perennial plant called Capparis spinosa (or caper bush or Flinders rose). Some parts of the plant, which is native to the Mediterranean, that have no culinary purposes are used in the manufacture of medicines and cosmetics.

Capparis spinosa, commonly called caper bush, is a scrambling, sprawling, spiny, evergreen shrub that typically grows to 3' tall, but spreads by semi-prostrate branching to as much as 6-10' wide.

Growing a caper bush can be achieved via propagation from seed, although finding a seed source is more of a challenge. If seed for growing capers is located, one may try growing them in a large pot with a base of coarse rock or crumbled brick. ... Caper seeds are very tiny and germinate readily but in low percentiles.
