Chilli Pepper Demon Red (AGM) Seeds
Chilli Seeds from Sow Seeds
Demon Red is a compact Thai type chilli that is not only excellent for cooking (especially Thai curries) but looks great on the windowsill.
Demon Red is a Capsicum annuum which is a species of the plant genus Capsicum native to southern North America, the Caribbean, and northern South America. This species is the most common and extensively cultivated of the five domesticated capsicums. The species encompasses a wide variety of shapes and sizes of peppers, both mild and hot, such as bell peppers, jalapeños, and cayenne peppers. Capsicum annuum is an evergreen Perennial growing to 1m by 1m at a medium rate. It is hardy to UK zone 9 and is frost tender. It is in leaf all year, in flower from July to September, and the seeds ripen from August to October. The species is hermaphrodite (which has both male and female organs).
It only reaches a height of 35cm but it can produce over 100 cute little slender chillies per plant. The pods are about 0.3cm wide by 2-3cm long. The chillies mature from bright green to orange then red and are held upright in clusters on stems with a branching habit and small dark green leaves.
Demon Red is a very productive pepper and in 2013 began fruiting late August until late November in our unheated greenhouse and they are great used fresh and dried. Demon Red is a neat little productive chilli plant with peppers that have a bit of a kick - it's a little cracker!
