Count Dracula Chilli
‘A dramatic looking chilli with a good bite’
Capsicum Annuum
Count Dracula Chilli – what a suitable name for this black and blood red chilli pepper.
A little compact bush with striking black stems and the leaves are dark green and black. It looks absolutely amazing with the blood red pods with a black calyx.
The plant is very suitable for growing in a pot, and if you are space challenged, this is a perfect choice. It grows to about 40 cm in height and is very easy to grow.
The pods start off jet black and goes through a dramatic looking change to a blood red colour. We do not know the origin of the fantastic looking chilli, but we are just so happy to have it in our chilli collection.
All in all an amazing looking chilli with a really nice flavour and they give a good bite.
Pod size: 4 cm long and 2-2,5 cm wide. The walls are thick.
Flavour: Juicy and sweet with a hint of capsicum.
Heat: Medium
10-12 chilli seeds per packet

I started 3 of the seeds in a Rapid Rooter starting plug and they were visibly sprouting in 3 1/2 days. Awesome seeds! Thank you!
