Pepper 'Aji Orchid'

  • Product number: 207681
  • Origin: South America
  • Latin: Capsicum baccatum

A very beautiful Peruvian pepper, just like a (Christmas) bell. The fruits are quite sweet and moderately hot. The plant is quite leggy and easily grows to a meter high, a stake for support is the solution... It is usually too cold outdoors for this beauty.

Latin: Capsicum baccatum
Dutch: Peper
