Hot Plum Chili Seeds
Info: The Hot Plum Chili is a beautiful plant, and unusually for chilies, it produces numerous blue-violet flowers. The chilies themselves are also eye-catching, as they ripen from green to shiny black to dark red. They are long, pointed and very spicy. They are suitable for hot sauces, cooking, pickling and making into chili powder.
Care: The germination temperature is between 22 und 28°C (8 - 20 day germination period), therefore the use of a greenhouse and a heating mat is recommended. 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.
Tips for successful chili cultivation can be found in our Chili Cultivation Instructions and in the Chili Diary.
