Pepper 'Cochabamba' / 'Aji Cochabamba'

  • Product number: 208166
  • Origin: South America
  • Latin: Capsicum baccatum

One of the largest growing pepper plants: they can grow into true trees of 2.5 m high and 2 m wide... and that in 1 growing season! Each plant produces a mass of small round fruits that are on the hot side. They ripen from green through orange to red. When the fruits are red, the plant looks like a small cherry tree. The fruits have great decorative value and are also good for stuffing. The plant grows best in the greenhouse and needs to be well supported.
