The Basket of Fire is a compact, ornamental chilli variety that produces a vibrant mix of small, tapered fruits ripening through purple, cream, yellow, orange, and finally to red. With a heat level reaching up to 100,000 SHU, it offers a solid medium-hot kick with a slightly sweet, citrusy flavour. Ideal for containers and hanging baskets, this hardy plant is exceptionally prolific and thrives in cooler climates. A hybrid Capsicum annuum, it fruits early and continues throughout the season, making it perfect for fresh use, drying, or adding colour and heat to cooked dishes.

  • Origin: Developed for ornamental and culinary use

Seeds Quality

Every seed we sell is grown at the ChilliChump homestead, so we control the whole process from sowing to harvest. Seeds are handpicked from healthy plants, processed using methods we’ve refined over the years, and germination-tested before they reach you.

Unless a listing says otherwise, every variety we sell is a stable line (F7+), so it breeds true season after season and won’t throw unexpected traits on its own. That leaves one thing to manage: cross-pollination, where stray pollen reaches a flower on an insect or a gust of wind while it’s in bloom. We take more care over isolation than most, which keeps the risk small, but no outdoor grower can rule it out entirely, so we don’t claim 100% purity. The only way to TRULY isolate chilli varieties is to grow just one variety within a quarter-mile to a mile radius from any other chilli pepper variety.

You can read what other growers think in our reviews, and the ChilliChump YouTube channel follows these plants through every season, so you can see exactly where your seeds come from. If you’re ever unhappy with seeds from us, please get in touch.
