Description: The Moranguinho Chilli, also known as the “Little Strawberry,” is a delightful baccatum variety originating from Greece. Its compact and bushy plants reach a height of approximately 50-60 cm and spread around 50-70 cm widthwise. The small, cone-shaped fruits undergo a captivating colour transformation as they ripen: from white to yellow-orange and finally to a vibrant red when fully mature. The thick-walled flesh offers a mild heat, making it perfect for those who enjoy flavour without overwhelming spiciness. With a Scoville Heat Unit (SHU) rating of around 5000, it strikes a delightful balance.
