Ecuador Purple Chili Seeds

Information: The Ecuador Purple Chili offers a beautiful play of colours of the ripening fruits, which at first are purple, then yellow, orange and finally red. The upright fruits are at the same time on the plant in different stages of maturity and light up colourful. The leaves also have a beautiful purple variegation. The plants grow small and compact and are therefore ideal for pot culture. A real eye-catcher on the balcony or the windowsill!

Care: Germination temperature is between 22°C and 28°C (germination period: 8-21 days); it is therefore recommended to use a greenhouse and a heating mat. The plants need fresh, well-fertilised, permeable soil, and do not tolerate waterlogging. They should be planted in a sunny, protected place with at least 6 hours of sunlight - preferably more. Put the plants outside approx. 2 to 3 weeks after the last frost.
