Hangjiao 3 Solar Flare is a productive and compact Cayenne-type chilli originating from China, known for its vibrant yellow pods and exceptional yields. Designed for versatility, this variety performs superbly in both small pots and open ground, producing a constant flush of fruit throughout the season.
The slender, elongated pods mature from pale green to a striking yellow, maintaining a glossy sheen and thin walls ideal for quick drying. Their size and texture make them perfect for slicing into fine rings, adding visual appeal and authentic flavour to Thai-style and other Asian dishes.
Flavour is bright, clean, and slightly tangy with heat just above medium level. When dried and ground, the pods create a golden chilli powder with a balanced, lively burn that enhances all kinds of savoury cooking. The heat is noticeable but not overwhelming, sitting comfortably in the Hot range.
Plants are compact yet remarkably prolific, producing generous clusters of fruit even in small containers. Their manageable size and reliability make Hangjiao 3 Solar Flare an excellent choice for balcony or patio growing, as well as for home cooks seeking steady yields of flavourful chillies.
A true all-rounder, Hangjiao 3 Solar Flare delivers colour, productivity, and taste in equal measure — a high-performing variety ideal for easy, everyday growing.
Germination temperature 28–30 °C. See our Water and Feed Guides for advise.
