Grafted Vegetable Plants Collection features three well-established 9cm plants, including Chilli Budafest, Chilli Big Devil and Pepper Corno Di Toro Lipari.
Chilli Budafest is chosen for its vibrant colour and punchy flavour. This Hungarian chilli is very high yielding, producing large red and yellow fruits with a sharp flavour that adds excitement to your garden and kitchen. Scoville rating: 5,000–10,000.
Chilli Big Devil delivers the classic Tabasco-style flavour. A very high-yielding plant, it produces healthy crops of bright green and red fruits, perfect for cooking, sauces or adding heat to dishes.
Pepper Corno Di Toro Lipari – also known as Bull's Horns in Italy – produces sweet, tapering peppers up to 20cm (8") long. Harvest green or red, they have a crisp, full-bodied flavour, making them popular with chefs and home cooks alike.
Grafted vegetable plants offer us gardeners’ plants which have greater vigour and much more resistance to soil borne pests and diseases, such as nematodes – particularly useful if you grow in the greenhouse border soil each year, where crop rotation is somewhat limited! The grafting process brings together the best attributes of two different plants – a species rootstock and a hybrid variety.
The hybrid variety is grafted to the species rootstock to produce plants which are strong and vigorous, which in turn, produce more fruits and heavier yields. Although traditionally greenhouse grown, we have found that, in a warm and sunny position, these plants will also crop well outside, extending your harvest season.
Supplied as well-established plants in 9cm pots. Please note – do not remove the plastic grafting clip. It will fall off naturally as the plant grows.
