Description

A delightful, cayenne type of long red medium heat chilli pepper. The more it lies the longer it gets, just like Pinocchio's Nose! Usually reaching 8 - 10" (20 - 25 cm) long, sometimes a little curly, this heritage, heirloom variety is well worth growing.

It's a great addition to a pasta dish for that authentic Italian flavour! The chillies can be dried, used to make a spicy sauce, added to any culinary dish, or however you like your chillies!

The plant grows to around 3 - 4 feet (90 - 120 cm) tall with a slender habit of around 2 feet (60 cm) wide.

• Origin: Italy (where else?).
• Heat: Medium Hot - approximately 15,000 - 30,000 SHUs.
