Zebrange chilli pepper is a magnificent chilli pepper that originates from a cross between Aji Fantasy white and Christmas Bell by Laurent Minet from Belgium. The medium sized plants produce an abundance of striking looking bulbous peppers going from green to orange with deep red streaks. The peppers have good flavour with some sweetness and a tiny little spiciness around the placenta. This is our second year growing the fantastic Zebrange Chilli pepper. This variety takes quite a few months to mature but is worth the wait. Seeds grown and seed saved in Cork, Ireland.
