The Chilly chili is an ornamental chilli pepper producing fruit of orange and red. As a bonus, Chilly Chili is safe to use around children because the peppers are not pungent. 5-7cm (2-2½in) long fruit are borne above the foliage and start out greenish-yellow, then turn to orange, and finally to dark red. Plants grow about 30cm (12in) tall and spread up to 35cm (14in) wide. Extremely heat tolerant, Chilly Chili provides garden colour even during the hottest summers.[1]
