Over 3000 varieties listed!!
Most of the original data was taken from seed catalogues that I obtained locally, and that were sent to me from other Chile-Heads around the world. It was then supplemented from information found by going through websites across the Internet. Later on, information was received direct from seed and plant growers, and from research universities involved in the development of new varieties.
Please select the variety names you wish to look at using the A-Z on the left.
NOTE: if you have actually read through this website, you'll realise that I enjoy growing chile peppers for my own pleasure. I am NOT a commercial grower. I do NOT sell chile pepper seeds.
If you have any corrections, updates or amendments, please let me know.
