Purple chilli seeds

The Purple Chilli (Capsicum annuum) is a decorative and edible variety producing deep purple fruits that gradually ripen to red. The plant itself has purple-tinged stems and foliage, making it one of the most ornamental chilli plants available. Medium heat with a slightly earthy, complex flavour. Excellent for container growing. Known as Baingani Mirch (Hindi: बैंगनी मिर्च), Purple Chilli is increasingly popular among balcony gardeners who want a plant that is as beautiful as it is productive. The colour contrast between the dark purple fruits and green foliage is striking. Harvest at the purple stage for ornamental use or allow to ripen fully red for maximum heat and flavour.
