SO WHAT WILL YOU GET? – you will receive one special chilli seed variety we can guarantee is either super rare / not yet available / simply stunning in it’s beauty / or one that is a not deemed stable but extremely cool and/or extremely tasty.

7 Pot Bubblegum Chocolate
C.Chinense
700,000 – 800,000 SHULook at all this chocolate goodness but don’t be fooled this one is a hottie. We love a bleeding calyx on a good looking chilli and this one is certainly that. Fruit grow around 3cm x 3cms in size and are thick walled with lots of placenta. Its another naturally occurring variant of the 7 pot Bubblegum Red(a cross between a Trinidad Scorpion Moruga and a Trinidad 7 Pod Yellow) and we think it is hotter with more of a smokey aroma. Get your hands on this one for your rare chilli collection – you won’t be disappointed.

7 Pot Bubblegum Yellow
C.Chinense
500,000-650,000 SHUThis little beauty is definitely one for those who are collectors of rare and unique chillies. The Yellow variety is a naturally occurring variant of the 7 pot Bubblegum Red(a cross between a Trinidad Scorpion Moruga and a Trinidad 7 Pod Yellow) that we obtained from a friend. It is seemingly less hot than the red variety and the pods are about half the size at 3-4cms long and 2-3cms wide. It has the bleeding calyx that we all love and is quite prolific as chilli plants go. Taste wise it has the typical chinense flavour with a citrisy sweetness that bursts through.

7 Pot Congo SR Gigantic Mustard
C. Chinense
800,000 – 1,000.000Whoa this is a damn big one with the pods getting on average to just under tennis ball size! A variation on the 7 Pot Congo Gigantic Red we got the mustard coloured variety from a friend who had been growing them for a couple of seasons. It does have a distinctive 7 Pot flavour however as like a lot of other mustard coloured chillies it is smoother and sweeter on the palate. A real chilli growers collectors item as this is a very rare one indeed.

Aji Colorado (Orange Variant)
C.Baccatum
20,000 – 30,000 SHUWe grew this one expecting the usual red variety but it has consistently thrown out amazing fluorescent orange pods – we love it. It is fast growing, fairly compact and a very prolific chilli pepper. The original Aji Colorado, from which this is a variant, is native to Bolivia and Peru. Packed with flavour these sweet-spicy, thin-walled chillies are extremely versatile. We love this pepper made into a powder as it really brings out the best of its flavour profile.

Aji Mango Stumpy
C.Baccatum
20,000 – 30,000 SHUWhat an absolute ripper this one is. Created by the pepperlover crew this is the stumpy version that has all the same qualities as the original longer pheno type. Crazy producer of 3cm x 1cm sized fruit/pods the Aji Mango will blow you away. Ripening to a deep bright yellow the fruit taste sweet and fruity. Yes as its namesake implies it does have a hint of mango like fruity flavour. As for what it would be good with we can only say SAUCE SAUCE SAUCE. But we have it on everything from pizza to pasta to salads. Do yourself a favour and grow this one.

BBG x Aji Jobito
C. Chinense
100,000 – 200,000 SHUOh yeah a chilli cross to get pretty darn excited about. With the flavour of the fruity Aji Jobito this one is tainted with the searing heat of a 7 Pot. In particular the famous 7 Pot Bubblegum. We sourced this from the United States and couldn’t be happier. Smooth and shiney with a colour we can only describe as pinky, peachy orange. It is a new chilli hybrid cross so is not fully stable. We will definately be growing this again soon but now you can too…

Bengal Naga Peach
C. Chinense
600,000 – 800,000 SHUWhoa this is a thing to behold. It’s said to originate as an off-type plant in a greenhouse full of Bhut Jolokia, but outside this its a mystery to us. The Bengal Naga Peach has wrinkled skin and can be quite twisty. Flavor wise they are sweet as superhots go and deliver a fruity taste that breaks through the savage heat. We love how this one looks but you be the judge if it takes your fancy.

Black Scorpion Tongue (Variant)
C. Annuum
Approx. 50,000 – 80,000 SHU
What a stunner – this is our favourite new variety for its looks alone. THSC released an F2 phenotype of a new Black Scorpion Tongue variety and this is how ours turned out. We can’t guarantee its stability but what a beauty to play with to see what you get. If its anything like ours you will get the most intense purple coloured pods that ripen through a rainbow array of colours. Just check out the pics. Pods grow prolifically and upright getting to about 3cm long and 1.5cms wide in size. The flowers on this stunner are the best we’ve ever seen on a chilli plant and have to be seen to be believed. Limited stock on this one so why not try your hand at growing this unique pepper to admire in your garden. What does it taste like? Salty and bitter but who cares it looks amazing.

Caramel Bhut Jolokia aka Ghost
C. Chinense
800,000 – 1,00,000 SHUWhat do we have here? – an awesome caramel colour variation on the renowned Bhut Jolokia aka the Ghost Chilli. Said to be originally discovered by BEAGLESTORM from The Pepper Seed when growing out the chocolate Bhut. It produces like crazy, maturing from light neon to dark green before ripening to a beautiful Caramel colour. A definite must have for the serious chilli growers out there.

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.

Costa Rica Orange
C. Frutescens
Approx 100,000-150,000 SHUWe got seeds of this beauty from THSC as a natural variant of the Red Chilli Costa Rica. If you love chillies that stand out in the garden then this is one for you. It has deep dark black/green foliage with the leaves turning darker the more sun it gets. The pods are almost a fluorescent orange which contrasts amazingly with the black leaves. Just a stunner. Size wise the plant grows incredibly compact to around 60-70cms with the pods 2-3cm wide and long. Despite being more an ornamental the flavour is salty and tangy and we think it would make an interesting vibrantly coloured chilli powder.
