Aji Limon 1 Litre Pot Plant

Note: these plants have been lightly pruned to allow them to fit into our tallest boxes. They're big healthy plants, so the light pruning would not set the plant back and you should get a good harvest from the season ahead.

This heavy cropping and easy-to-grow Peruvian variety grows into a large, drooping plant with fruits 6-8cm long that ripen from a translucent yellowy green to bright yellow. The fresh fruit has a distinctive citrus flavour. 

Heat level: 40,000 to 70,000 SHUs. Learn about Scoville Heat Units (SHUs) here.

Harvest: Starts fruiting about 120 days from potting on as seedlings and under good growing conditions. Pick when the fruits have reached their maximum size. Fruits ripen from green to yellow.

Size: Plants can get quite tall, well over 1m and will require support if grown in pots. They can also be grown in hanging baskets.
