Albanian Red Hot
C. Annuum
Aprox. 50,000 – 100,000 SHUAnother corker of a corker…The Albanian Red Hot pepper is a rare heirloom variety from the Albanian-Macedonian region that was discovered by Pepperlover. They had seeds sent to them by a Turkish friend who says that it is famously used by Turkish villagers in making their local chilli powder. This is what has been said about it and we can only agree wholeheartedly. “Very sweet, almost cherry like sweet with rich long lasting taste of acidic-heat without any bitterness. By all means, this pepper is a true treasure, when we used it fresh it was mouthwatering, when we made some into powders, it has its own unique sweet-lightly acidic and sour flavor which we didn’t experience in other peppers. No need to smoke this pepper, it has its own woody/mushroomy aroma.”
This type of skin is referred to as “vezeni” (meaning “embroidered”) and the longer you leave on the plant the more embroidered it gets. The Albanian Red Hot grows to around 20cms long and 3-4cms wide, so if you like your chillies big, flavorsome, easy maintenance and super productive go no further.

Barbara’s Antipodes
C. Anuum x C. Chinense
Unknown SHUBarbara’s Antipodes may be one of the most versatile chillies ever! It is the unusual but deliberate cross of a Sweet Bell Pepper and a Bhut Jolokia. It was bred by Florian Hauch in Germany back in 2007. Since then he has grown it to at least F11 so it’s completely stable. Florian generously gave some of his seeds exclusively to us at Chilli Seedz. We would say it tastes like a really good Capsicum, sweet and juicy with a really good mellow punch of heat. To put it short, it’s brilliant! Salads, stir fry and, being about one third the size of a big capsicum, is great for stuffing. The possibilities are endless and you guys are going to be the first in Australia to have it! Germination rate is down a little, about 70%. Still great!

Berry Amarillo Round
C.Baccatum
10,000-30,000 SHUThere seems to be two types of the Berry Amarillo and we believe this one is just as stable as the original one we grew. The round version has a similar flavour profile to the original but is much juicier given it’s plumpness. It is also more yellow than orange and we think it looks very cool. Sweet and fruity it is perfect on a pizza and would be a great chilli sauce contender. Pods grow to about 3cm wide and 3cm long and the plant is one of those gangly ones that needs a good staking to hold the copious amount of fruit it produces. Just another great baccatum to fall in love with. Definitely one we will continue to grow and enjoy as a milder chilli option.

Caysan
C. Annuum
Approx 20,000-40,000 SHUThis would have to be the classiest cayenne type pepper you can get. The Caysan has become one of the most sought after fresh market chilli varieties due to its consistent high quality, glossy appearance and excellent shelf life. The insanely vigorous plant provides good leaf cover with
continuous chilli production most of the year round – well at least in the tropics. The smooth thick walled fruit have a tapered shape and straight sides with excellent firmness at both dark green and mature red stages. Approx 12-14cm x 1.8-2cm in size this one is a must have for the kitchen as it is super versatile.10+ Seeds

CGN 21500
C. Chinense
10,000 – 30,000 SHUMost hard core chilli heads will by now have heard of the CGN 21500. The CGN classification system for chilli varieties indicates an accession from the genebank at Wageningen in the Netherlands.
It’s originally from Brazil and must have some heritage with the Roxa type. It is very sweet and juicy and has a fruity and delicate flavour. Although quite mild in heat, it is very highly regarded amongst chilli lovers and is probably the most well known of the CGN types. We have never heard anything but good reports about this great chilli. It is very plentiful on the plant and goes great in a salad. Grow it! You will love it!

CO1234 Yellow Ding Dong
C. Baccatum
Approx. 500 – 1,000 SHUWhat a surprise this one turned out to be. It was labeled CO1234 but we like to think of it as our Yellow Ding Dong as it has the most amazing dangly shapes. Next to no heat this variety has a very thin wall with a lovely citrusy orange flavour. We think it would be great dried but as with most baccatum’s its mild enough to enjoy straight from the bush.

Comets Tail – Space Chilli (HJ 4)
C.Annuum
3,000-4,000 SHUAnother delicious cayenne type but this awesome chilli pepper has been developed from seeds sent into space. Its has less than a Jalapeno level of heat and is very prolific. Not many can brag that they have space chillies – be one of the first.
“For many decades work has been going on by the Chinese who have been sending seeds into orbit on satellites exposing them to zero gravity. It has become apparent that the trip into space is creating higher yields, bigger produce, and an increase in the levels of nutrients in the resulting fruit.”
