Sweet with some spice, the Malawian Piquante (aka Peppadew) are incredible tasting chillies. They are great pickled! The story goes that they were discovered in South Africa in the 90’s.
The plant is fairly easy to grow, be careful with too much sunshine (not that that would be too much of a problem in the UK!). They can grow fairly large, so give them enough room.
All seeds are harvested from plants that are grown at the ChilliChump homestead, ensuring complete control over the growing process. Every seed is handpicked from healthy plants, and processed with methods we have optimised over the years. The seeds are then tested to ensure they meets our high standards for germination and growth.
While we use isolation methods for our seeds that are more stringent than many others in the industry, there is still a small risk of cross pollination or genetic regression (especially for newer hybrids). 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 see the comments and reviews online from our many satisfied and happy customers, and you can check out the ChilliChump YouTube channel for his yearly updates on his chilli growing to see where your seeds come from. On the rare occasion you have seeds from us that you aren’t happy with, please get in touch.

One very prolific chilli. I bought these from Chillichump last year and had a bumber crop. The best way to use them was to sweet pickle them. I didn’t get to try many as my wife loved them. I only planted 5 seeds, but all germinated. Thanks.

Great germination with strong healthy plants. Easy to grow, good looking plant and good tasting pepper

My Malawian Piquante seeds always achieve 100% germination. This winter I tried an experiment by growing one indoors over LED grow lights, and it was quite the success. It was eventually potted on to a 1.5 gallon nursery pot and produced two harvests before spring. I was able to use ChilliChump’s recipe to make two pints of delicious pickled peppadews that were quickly devoured. I have several younger plants that I am excited to plant outdoors this season. These will probably be on my “every year” list of chillies to grow.

I’ve grown these two years running now. My favourite “snacking while gardening” pepper. Very prolific, and the pickled peppadew recipe is just glorious.
Guy Middleton –
The Malawian Piquante was the rockstar of the pepper garden this year. I used the pickling recipe from Chili Chump and they are amazing.

Easily one of the best chili peppers you can grow. Massive plant, super productive, and perfect for pickling.
Duncan (verified owner) –
Great germination rates, super early fruits and prolific – and it’s only very early days in the growing season in the UK being mid June. Very, very happy with these
