  • Product number: 207703
  • Origin: Peru
  • Latin: Capsicum baccatum

Truly a beautiful looking species from Peru, they look like small, colourful jewels sprouting from the bright green foliage of the plant. They taste as great as they look and are used for their slightly sweet taste and mild heat in fresh salads as well as in sauces, salsas and other dishes. They ripen from light purple, through light orange to deep red. The plants are very bushy, 80 cm high and extremely productive.

Latin: Capsicum baccatum
