Rocoto Peron Rojo Chili Seeds
Information: In contrast to the apple-shaped Rocoto ("manzano"), "Peron" means "pear-shaped". Therefore, in contrast to the Rocoto Manzano the chillies are rather longish than round. Rocotos belong to the species Capsicum pubescens. They are relatively robust, tolerate slightly cooler temperatures and can be planted in the field (but only if you do not want to overwinter them). Rocoto Peron Rojo has pretty dark purple flowers that produce large, elongated, red and hot pods. The fruits are thick-walled and juicy and are ideal for cooking, filling and pickling.
Care: Germination temperature is between 22°C and 28°C (germination period: 8-21 days); it is therefore recommended to use a greenhouse and a heating mat. The plants need fresh, well-fertilised, permeable soil, and do not tolerate waterlogging. They should be planted in a sunny, protected place with at least 6 hours of sunlight - preferably more. Put the plants outside approx. 2 to 3 weeks after the last frost. To keep the plant over the winter, cut it back by 20cm after harvesting and place in a light place where it is at least 15°C.
You can find plenty of useful tips for successfully growing chili plants in our Chili Cultivation Instructions and in the Chili Diary.

habe verschiedene Samen hier gekauft und war mit allem zufrieden, nur leider nicht mit der Rocot Peron Rojo. ( von 5 eingepflanzten ist keine aufgegangen)
finde ich sehr schade da ich mir diese auch gewünscht hätte und hoffe dass sie doch noch aufgehen werden
