Great variety with fruity sharp, long fruits. Are first green and turn red when fully ripe. The green fruits can also be used because they are not yet as spicy as the red ones. Great for containers or greenhouse.

Non hybrid

Not frost resistant

Growing tips

Chili plants can be grown as annuals outdoors or as perennial container plants. We recommend overwintering the plants and keeping them as perennials, as a bountiful chili harvest can be expected in the second year in particular. Press the seeds into sowing soil and keep them warm (approx. 24°C). Chili seeds need a lot of warmth to germinate - a heated propagator can be helpful here. Grows well indoors. Loves sunny locations and nutritious soil.
