Aji Monagre
Aji Monagre Chilli Seeds. The Aji Monagre (C. Annuum) originates from Ecuador. Bushy, medium sized annuum plant that produces undulated cone shaped pods that ripen from green to a beautiful red colour. These pods will appeal to those of you who do not tolerate heat. These pods are without heat. Some may have a little tingle, but virtually no heat. These peppers are quite straight forward with a peppery citrus profile. Great for drying and turning into a superb paprika style powder that is a lovely red colour, has super sun dried tomato and pepper flavour - without the heat.

* The container sizes above are sugested sizes that are reasonable and accessible for most growers (taking price, space, ecological/environmental impact into consideration). Not everyone can look at growing in huge containers. If you can justify growing in larger containers - there are no limitations on container sizes. You may however, rather look at growing in soil as an option in these instances. Using large amounts of potting medium will come with ecological/environmental impact, which you may wish to take into consideration.
