Brazilian Starfish Orange

Heat: Medium (20,000 SHU)

100 Days. A rare and beautiful Capsicum baccatum from Brazil producing distinctive flat, star-shaped pods 4–5 cm across that ripen from green to a vivid orange. The pods are as stunning in the garden as they are in the kitchen — sweet, fruity, and citrusy with a crisp texture and lively heat that makes them highly versatile for fresh use, sauces, and pickling.

Tall, branching plants with a weeping, vine-like habit reach up to 1.5 metres in the ground and are slow to start but remarkably prolific once established. Perform best in full sun with well-drained, fertile soil.

Harvest: Pick when pods are fully vivid orange for peak sweetness and flavour.
Flavour: Sweet, fruity, and citrusy with a crisp texture and lively heat.
