Capsicums are a frost and cold tender EVERGREEN PERENNIAL that is often grown as an annual. This compact branching plant (45cm) produces masses of small (2-4cm) purple fruit that ripen to bright red and are carried above the foliage. Moderate heat. Prefers growing in a moist well-drained soil in full sun.
Used fresh as a condiment or roasted, dried, or canned. Peppers are often used fresh in salads, or cooked into pasta sauces, marinades, made into hot sauces etc. They are very high in vitamin C and other vitamins and minerals making them highly nutritive. It is mostly the very pungent cayenne peppers that are used medicinally.
