Santa Fe Grande 1 Litre

This is one of our favourite varieties - easy to grow, amazingly productive, early cropping and a well proportioned and attractive bush. The conical-shaped 7cm-long chillies that are normally harvested yellow, but will ripen to red if left on the bush. This plant is very quick to produce full-sized fruit (65 days from potting on) and keeps on fruiting as long as conditions are favourable. The fruits are milder than Jalapenos and the flavour is sometimes said to be similar to melon. These thick-fleshed chillies are good for salsa, pizza toppings and make great chilli poppers (stuffed with cheese and grilled or baked).
