Chenzo Chilli Pepper is an unusual compact plant (55 high by 50cm wide) that produces lots & lots of 5-6 cm long jet black chillies. It branches arch into a neat dome and the fruits hang like jewels below the bushy foliage.

In fact the pods do start off green and mature from black through to red, so it makes a very attractive patio plant when all 3 colours are on show. Chenzo chillies do remain black for a long time before turning red & the pods can be used for cooking etc when black or red either fresh or dried but to maintain productivity keep picking the chillies.

Chenzo is very productive and crops early and for a long time and the pods have a medium-hot heat of 45,000 SHU. Chenzo Chilli pepper has been specifically bred within the UK so can cope with our 'mixed up' weather better than most chillies. Chenzo is a productive little chilli pepper and well worth growing!

PLEASE NOTE - we do not recommend growing chillies on a windowsill, especially the hotter varieties. Chillies need a constant and consistent temperature to germinate and windowsills above radiators do not provide the ideal conditions.
