- Product number: 207703
- Origin: Peru
- Latin: Capsicum baccatum
A truly beautiful-looking variety from Peru, they look like small, colourful jewels sprouting from the plant's bright green leaves. They taste just as great as they look, and are used for their slightly sweet flavour and mild heat in fresh salads as well as in sauces, salsa and other dishes. The ripening colours change from light purple, to light orange, to deep red. The plants are very bushy, 80 cm tall and extremely productive.
