Chilli Name: BELLINGRATH GARDENS

Named in honor of Mobile, Alabama's famous garden. This strikingly beautiful, ornamental pepper plant has purple-green stems and leaves with a satin sheen. Young foliage and growing tips are variegated with colours of green, purple, and creamy-white. Leaves are small (1" to 2-1/2" long), and the undersides are green with purple venation. Plants are sturdy, hardy, and well branched, and may reach a height of 5 feet when well grown. Flowers are purple with greenish-purple stamens. The pendant fruits ripen from greenish-purple to purple-orange to red, and provide a colorful accent to the purple foliage. Fruits are small (3/8" x 7/8"), abundant, hot, and because they separate readily from the plant they are easy to harvest. Compared to 'Royal Black', 'Bellingrath Gardens Purple' is more variegated. Recommended enthusiastically for ornamental gardens. 85 days.
