Hot Pepper Fidalgo Roxa (Capsicum chinense)
Hot Pepper Fidalgo Roxa is a rare and striking chili variety from Brazil, celebrated for its vibrant purple hues, fruity flavor, and moderate heat. This ornamental and edible pepper is highly sought after by gardeners and chili enthusiasts for its beauty and versatility.
Plant Characteristics
The Fidalgo Roxa pepper plant grows to a height of 60–90 cm, with a bushy and compact structure that makes it ideal for pots or garden beds. It produces small, wrinkled, and uniquely shaped fruits, measuring 3–5 cm in length and weighing 5–8 grams each. The fruits mature from a vivid purple to orange and then red, creating a colorful display throughout the growing season. This variety is highly productive, with the potential to produce an abundance of peppers on a single plant.
Flavor and Nutritional Qualities
The fruits of Fidalgo Roxa have a tropical, fruity flavor with moderate heat, ranging from 50,000–100,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU). Packed with capsaicin, vitamins A and C, and antioxidants, these chilies not only enhance culinary creations but also provide health benefits such as improved metabolism and immune support.
Cultivation Recommendations
Fidalgo Roxa thrives in full sun with well-drained, nutrient-rich soil. Start seeds indoors 8–10 weeks before the last frost date, maintaining a soil temperature of 24–30°C for optimal germination. Transplant seedlings outdoors when the danger of frost has passed, spacing plants 40–50 cm apart. Regular watering, mulching, and light feeding with balanced fertilizer will encourage vigorous growth and high yields. Fruits typically mature in 100–120 days after transplanting.
Applications and Uses
The fruity and spicy flavor of Fidalgo Roxa makes it ideal for fresh salsas, hot sauces, and chutneys. Its vibrant color and unique shape also make it a standout garnish for gourmet dishes. The peppers can be dried or pureed for seasoning blends, while the plant itself serves as an attractive ornamental feature in gardens or containers.
Packaging and Delivery
Each packet contains 5 fresh, premium-quality seeds, carefully tested for germination and purity. Orders are processed within 1–2 business days, with delivery typically taking 1–2 weeks, both within India and internationally.
