Chilli - Pumpkin Pepper



Planted this spring, Plant is currently in the greenhouse and looking happy.


What surprised me about this chilli, was the rate at which the plant has grown, easily dwarfing all other chillies i have grown this year. I am very exited to see how well it does next year, if i successfully overwinter it.






The plant grew a single fruit a month ago, which hadn't ripened beyond its original green, so i tried it anyway. Unfortunately it was horrible. Hopefully the new batch of fruit that started growing a couple of weeks ago will be nicer.



The fruit are begining to look like little pumpkins, and i believe should ripen to a red-ish colour, although i haven't seen it yet.
