Capsicum annuum 'Peppers from Heaven' (Chilli)

Common name: Chilli Pepper

Description: Capsicum annuum 'Peppers from Heaven' is a highly ornamental chilli pepper producing an abundance of small, upward-pointing fruits that ripen through a spectacular range of colours — from cream and yellow to orange and red — often displaying multiple colours simultaneously on the same plant. The small white flowers are followed by this colourful fruiting display, making it as decorative as it is edible. Perfectly suited to sunny patio pots and windowsills, the fruits have a medium heat and can be used fresh in cooking.
