My Flexuosum trees will be 10 years old in 2024, still putting out xl pods, even after the plants went down to the stems in the - 9C freeze we had in December 2022, amazing species! Always give free extras, make sure I give Eshbaughii seeds with orders for these :)

Another late season for me, got the heater on and the bubble wrap and insulating fleece over plants for protection, adding more of that this week in advance of the temps dropping lower next weekend. Not too long now for starting off 2024's seeds! Continued thanks to all making seed orders from my site. Always add free extras as thanks for the support :)

Classic Welsh weather 😆 Got the heater on as it gets colder.

All go with seed palnting, spring is almost here at last! My Flexuosum trees in the polytunnel endured - 8/9C temps at the colder end of the polytunnel in December, so have been slow to come back, but as it warms up they're coming back to life and now into their 9th year! Incredible species!

Continued thanks to all who've ordered seeds from me, I add extras to every order as thanks :) Now it's cooled, the heater is on in the polytunnel and my season still continues. seed sales help fund me heating the polytunnel to get viable seeds for new cultivars I'm developing which often require more time.

Great to be growing the Venezuelan tiger sweet Chinense again. I introduced these to the chilli community years ago after a friend gave me the pod from her mother's yard in Venezuela in 2009. The long red single pod pictured is the one I was given back in 2009.

Apologies for the lack of posts, been all go... Hope everyone is having a great season. The UK heatwave has kept me on my feet watering the polytunnels twice a day!

Apologies for the late replies to emails, am a one man band, so got a bit behind, but now catching up! My season is still running here in South Wales where I'm still picking and seed saving daily in what has been a slow ripening pod year. Hopefully in a week or so I'll be adding more new types to my seed shop. Always add free extras with every order as thanks. Here are some photos from the last few days. The xl olive Rocoto will need another year before I sell seeds to make sure it repeats. 4 years of work to get it 🔥🌶

Growing Chilli Peppers in South Wales Since 2008

Chris Fowler (Welsh Dragon Chilli) began to grow chillies in a quest to taste fresh jalapeño’s in 2004. His first plants were grown at home in his conservatory, and soon Numex Twilight, Ring of Fire, Padron and Chocolate Habanero Andrew plants expanded the varieties grown.

A visit to the 2006 Chilli Festival in Sussex with a huge array of chillies and chilli sauces meant that there was no turning back...

The conservatory quickly became too small and so Chris decided that he had to expand into a polytunnel and set up a business producing chilli sauces - particularly sauces made with jalapeño - and Welsh Dragon Chilli was born.

Keen to expand his range he took to the internet and bought seeds from all over the world for more varieties, including the super hot Trinidad Scorpion chilli. The collection also expanded with the help of seed donations from friends. The range of chilli sauces has also expanded, and reviews from happy consumers can be found on Youtube. In 2014, the polytunnel moved to its present location at Cefn Mably Farm Park and added other fruits and vegetables
