Apricot

_________________________________________________

Capsicum chinense

Sea Spring Seeds’ version of a mild habanero, Apricot is virtually heat-free. The elongated fruit are slightly grooved and measure about 25 x 60mm. They have an appealing crunchy texture and a wonderfully fresh aroma. As they mature the colour changes from a delicate lime green to a subtle salmon orange. The medium-sized plants are quite tidy and disciplined, and can be grown, with some support, either in pots, growbags or the ground.

The fruit are delicious stuffed or as a fragrant addition to salads. They are a treat for cooks keen on introducing a new flavour to their food, and suitable for anyone nervous about the mouth-burning nature of chillies.

Highly recommended.
