Aji Charapón Chilli Plant in 4" pot

Aji Charapón

Heat: Hot (40,000 SHU)

100 Days. A Capsicum chinense from Peru and plumper cousin of the famed Aji Charapita, offering similar vibrant citrus aroma and fruity heat with slightly less tartness. Easier to harvest than its tiny relative thanks to the larger pod size, Aji Charapón is perfect for adding bright, fruity heat to salsas, sauces, and traditional Peruvian dishes.

Plants grow 60–80 cm tall and are covered in small, round pods around 1–1.5 cm wide throughout the season. Grow in full sun with fertile, well-drained soil and consistent moisture.

Harvest: Pick when pods are fully ripe for peak citrus flavour and heat.
Flavour: Distinct fruity citrus aroma with mild to medium heat.
