A quick-growing and really productive variety. Quite large bushes a couple of feet tall, making large (5 inches long) fantastic wrinkled, crinkly twisted fruits ripening from lime green to cherry-red. A nice extra is that it dries really easily, so it is a great one to grow and hang up a string in the kitchen for use year round.
Sow in Feb-March, for harvest August to October. For the best crop, grow them in a greenhouse, polytunnel or sunny conservatory. They should be happy in a sheltered, sun-baked spot outdoors – ideally beside a south-facing wall or on a sunny patio or balcony. They generally like similar growing conditions to tomatoes, so are ideal companions.
