Description

Get your taste buds all fired up with our Chilli Pepper 'Hot Collection'! This trio of spicy varieties are ideal for every culinary use, from adding some heat to your favourite dishes to creating your own oils and sauces. Grow them in the greenhouse or a sunny spot on the patio for the best crops and the hottest flavours.

  • Chilli Pepper 'Hot Collection' comprises:
  • Chilli Pepper 'Montezuma' - Named after the Aztec ruler who was known as the ‘King of Cocoa’, this hot-chocolate-chilli is the perfect ingredient to put the heat into chilli-con-carne. The long, pointed, chocolate-brown chillies are sweet and spicy, each weighing around 15-20 grams and measuring 30-50,000 on the Scoville Scale. Height: 100-200cm (40in to 80cm). Spread: 50cm (20in).
  • Chilli Pepper 'Scotch Bonnet' - Not for the faint hearted - this chilli is volcanically hot! Originating from Mexico, this variety produces tall plants with good crops that ripen early. It produces short lime green fruits that ripen through orange to a dark red colour, when the skins become slightly wrinkled. Height: 90cm (36"). Spread: 45cm (18").
  • Chilli Pepper 'Tabasco' - Famed as the main ingredient of the well-known hot chilli sauce. It produces small, upright, yellow-green fruits that turn scarlet when ripe. 30,000–50,000 SHU. Height: 50cm (20"). Spread: 40cm (16").

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.

How to Grow

Chilli peppers may be grown undercover in a greenhouse or polytunnel, or grown outdoors in a sheltered position in full sun. Pot up young plants and grow them on in warm frost free conditions. When plants are well grown transplant them into grow bags and containers, or plant them in well prepared beds of fertile, well drained soil. When growing chilli peppers outdoors, gradually acclimatise them to outdoor conditions over a period of 7 to 10 days prior to transplanting them. Space pepper plants at a distance of 50cm (20") apart.

More Info
Water chilli pepper plants regularly throughout the growing season and feed weekly with a high potash tomato fertiliser once the first fruits have set. Taller varieties of chilli peppers may require staking. Provide a thick mulch of organic matter around the base of the plants to help conserve moisture and reduce weed growth. In greenhouses, maintain high humidity by damping down paths daily. Harvest chillies singly by cutting them from the plant with secateurs or pull the entire plant when full of red peppers, and hang upside down in the kitchen for use all year round. Chilli peppers grown outdoors must be harvested before the first frosts.
