The Apache chilli is a compact, bushy Capsicum annuum that reaches around 35 to 50 cm tall. It produces small, bullet-shaped pods about 5 to 7 cm long, ripening from green to bright red. Heat levels sit around 70,000 to 80,000 SHU, giving a clean, sharp burn. I grow the Apache in smaller pots where it crops heavily even in cooler summers. The flavour is bright and slightly sweet when fully ripe, good for sauces, salsas, and quick pickles. Bred in the UK, it performs well in containers or sheltered outdoor beds and fruits reliably through the season.
