Capezzoli di Scimmia Chili Seeds

Info: The Capezzoli di Scimmia Chili comes from Italy, where its name means "monkey nipple". It has very small, almost round fruits (about 1.5 cm in diameter) that ripen in a bright orange. They are fiery hot and have the typical fruity Chinense aroma. The plants remain quite small with a height of about 60 cm, but are very productive.

Care: The germination temperature is between 22 und 28°C (8 - 20 day germination period), therefore the use of a greenhouse and a heating mat is recommended. 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.
