They are best pan-fried in olive oil and scattered with sea salt, as served in tapas bars throughout Spain. Plants are compact, bushy, and very productive, making them excellent for containers on a sunny patio and highly rewarding for anyone who enjoys growing their own ingredients for entertaining.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOther benefits:\u003c\/b\u003e the classic Spanish tapas pepper; exciting unpredictable heat variation; very productive compact plants; excellent in pots on a sunny patio\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWildlife attraction:\u003c\/b\u003e bees and other pollinating insects\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHeight \u0026amp; spread (approx.) at maturity:\u003c\/b\u003e 45–60cm x 45cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePosition:\u003c\/b\u003e full sun; patio containers, greenhouse, or warm sheltered border\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSoil pH:\u003c\/b\u003e slightly acid to neutral (pH 6.0–7.0); fertile, well-drained soil or compost\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMoisture:\u003c\/b\u003e regular watering required; high-potash liquid feed once flowering begins; avoid allowing compost to dry out\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWinter hardiness:\u003c\/b\u003e frost tender; grow as an annual from spring\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Coletta \u0026 Tyson","offers":[{"title":"Set of 3 10.5 cm pots","offer_id":56812291850618,"sku":"COL-10.5-CHI-PADX3","price":18.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Set of 6 10.5 cm pots","offer_id":56812380094842,"sku":"COL-10.5-CHI-PADX6","price":25.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0320\/6758\/4138\/files\/Chilli-Padron-105cm-Cedar-Nursery-Surrey-5.png?v=1776331839","url":"https:\/\/www.landscaping.co.uk\/products\/ct-capsicum-annuum-padron-herbaceous","provider":"Cedar Nursery - Plants and Outdoor Living","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
