The detail

You can choose from a carefully curated range of chilli pepper varieties, including the intensely hot Scotch Bonnet, versatile Hungarian Hot Wax, classic Jalapeño, ornamental Zimbabwe Black, fiery Thai Dragon, super-hot Armageddon, richly flavoured Chocolate Habanero and the mild-yet-unpredictable Padron.

Each variety forms a compact, bushy plant with healthy green foliage and develops its own distinctive fruit shape, size and colour, from thick-walled pods to slender upright chillies and deeply wrinkled lantern forms. Heat levels range from mild and approachable through to extremely hot, allowing growers to tailor planting to culinary preference while enjoying strong visual appeal and consistent cropping throughout the season.

Why ours
