This is an amazingly unique, rare and beautifully patterned chili with amazing color changes throughout the season, from a deep purple, yellow, orange, red, with their ripe color a deep red.
The fruit is really tasty, sweet, and salty crisp apple tones would work great in salsa.
Striking deep purple leaves and the plant will grow great in a pot to about 3 feet tall with an abundance of fruit.
We recommend putting it into at least a 40cm+ plant pot and placed in direct sunlight, the bigger the pot and the more sunlight the more fruit you will get, Chili plants also like a bit of a breeze, it helps them grow strong.
Do not overwater or underwater.
It can be planted in a pot outside in the spring (after the last frost), or grown in a pot on a balcony or indoors on a window sill.
