The Chinesischer Runzelhaut is a new variety for me this year, and it quickly proved itself. It fruited very early and produced an abundance of large, heavily wrinkled pods that turn a rich red when ripe. These striking, twisted chillies are not just visually impressive but also deliver a moderate heat with a clean, slightly sharp flavour. It’s great for fresh dishes, pickling or mild sauces. A compact Capsicum annuum from China, it grows well in pots or beds with good light and regular warmth.
