Chenzo – Purple
C.Frutescens
Approx 45,000 SHUWell what do we have here!…a Purple Chenzo. One that we grew that threw out purple instead of the initial black coloured fruit. Terribly cute this one is hard to beat as an easy growing, hardy and super prolific variety. The pods are 2-3 cm long and 0.5 cm wide and look awesome as they fill the bush with purple/green/matte orange and fire engine red fruit. It has a compact umbrella canopy growing habit getting to approximately 1 foot tall. PRETTY and TASTY this one is perfect for patio growing.

Chilhaucle Armarillo
C.Annuum
Approx. 20,000 – 50,000 SHUIt is said that the Chilhaucle Armarillo is possibly the rarest chilli in Mexico originating from Oaxca. This variety has a unique orange-yellow colour and tastes sweet, tangy and citrusy with smoky undertones. We love it! The skin is a little tough so this one is best roasted, made into a mole or dried and blitzed into a powder. Interestingly ‘Chilhaucle’ means ancient or old implying its been around for a long long time. The fruit are trapezoidal in shape and are around 8-10cms long and 2cms wide. There are two other varieties that come from the same region that have a similar name. The Chilhuacle Negro (Brown) and the Chilhuacle Rojo (Red). The Chilhuacle Amarillo grows up to 4 feet tall and has a lovely canopy like growth pattern. So get your hands on this treasure – you wont be disappointed.

Chilhuacle Negro
C.Annuum
Approx. 30,000 – 50,000 SHUThis is a very ancient and somewhat rare chilli that is the cornerstone of authentic Mexican Mole. Just over Cayenne heat level the Chilhuacle Negro has strong flavor notes of cocoa, tobacco and dry fruit. Chilhuacle means ‘ancient chile’ in Nahualt, the language of the Aztec peoples. Fruit are small to medium sized with a bell shape and are a dark chocolate colour when ripe. Being very thin walled they are easy to dry for powder but they are especially good roasted before adding to salsa or mole. A must have chocolate variety that is quite versatile in the kitchen.

Count Dracula
C.Annuum
25,000 – 30,000 SHU‘Muahahahaha I want to suck your blood’ is the first silly thing that comes to mind when we think of this chilli pepper variety. The fruit do have a good BITE to them but they also ripen from jet black to blood red. With striking jet black stems and leaves together with purple flowers this beauty looks absolutely amazing in the garden. Now officially one of our favorites to grow we can’t recommend this one enough. Grows about 2 foot tall with the fruit averaging 4cm long and 1cm wide. Taste is good too and would pretty much go with anything needing a good wack of heat without burning the taste buds off.
