The miniature sweet pepper is fast becoming a gourmet delicacy providing a more intense flavour to the larger varieties..
Capsicum annuum has soft but erect stems and branches with deep green, smooth leaves and small white flowers that mature to small, cone shaped hollow fruit in yellow, green, orange and red and multiple shades in between.
They are easy to grow but require a full season in direct sun to harvest the best fruit yields.
Being highly ornamental you can also grow these in pots on a windowsill or patio just for their good looks.
