[30,000 SHU][C. Annuum] Colorful, small-sized plant. It is often used as an ornamental plant. Cone-shaped fruit about 1 cm long. Low level of spice.

The fruit

The fruits continuously change color based on the stage of maturation. They display beautiful shades of color that go from green, yellow, purple, blue, black, and lastly, red. 

It is common to dry or freeze them in singular doses to use throughout the year for those who don't like extreme spiciness. 

The plant:

The plant of this variety doesn't get very large. It can grow up to 30-60 cm, it varies largely on the soil, climate, and weather.

It is often used as an ornamental balcony plant.

Growing

This variety loves sunny spots, but not when the leaves are not still well-developed. If the plant if small, expose it to the sun gradually. It responds poorly to cold nights. One frost is enough to kill it.

If you wish to use it as an ornamental plant, I recommend keeping it indoors during cold months.

Additional notes

These plants are tropical and love heat, they don't tolerate cold or humidity well. During cold months, it's possible that harmful funguses can grow. We can tell that this is happening if the leaves are yellow with black spots. Spray the plant as soon as possible with copper sulphate and place the plant in the least humid place possible.

These plants also enjoy good air circulation.
