Pepper (Chilli) Slowburn Seeds

Slowburn is an interspecific hybrid with a particularly attractive capcaisinoid profile. Unlike the vast majority of chillies, the heat is not immediately apparent but builds slowly into a very pleasant glow. The flavour is rich and complex, taking elements from both its parents, and has proved extremely popular in tastings.

Sow indoors from January to April, in soil 0.5 cm deep, in separate pots if possible. Pot on in late May outdoors either in containers as patio plants or in a well protected site. Peppers can be slow to germinate so allow up 35+ days. Compost should not be too moist to prevent the seeds from rotting. All chilli peppers are very sensitive to the cold.
