description

The ‘Thai Hot’ Capsicum annuum chili pepper is a compact and intensely productive organic variety, cherished for its small, upright or hanging fruits that turn from green to fiery red when ripe. Despite its miniature size, this plant bursts with energy in the garden and immediately catches the eye with its abundance of colorful peppers that linger on its branches for a long time. Its flavor starts with a slightly sweet note, moves on to citrus accents, then gives way to a lively and lasting heat that will delight lovers of spicy cuisine. Thanks to its dense and neat habit, it is suitable for both the vegetable garden and pot cultivation on a warm, sunny terrace. It particularly enjoys warm and humid conditions, where it produces an abundant and continuous harvest throughout the summer. Its discreet flowering contributes to the animation of the garden by attracting some pollinators before the appearance of the sparkling fruits. We love to watch it ripen slowly, each red pepper announcing a new fiery touch for homemade cooking. Both decorative, compact and formidably tasty, ‘Thai Hot’ is a first-class choice for gardeners who want to grow a small plant with a big character.
