Capsicum Baccatum (Bishop's Crown Chilli) is a distinctive and productive chilli variety recognised for its unusual bell-shaped fruits, which develop a characteristic crown-like form. The fruits mature from green to bright red and offer a fruity flavour with moderate heat, making this an attractive and useful addition to the edible garden.

Well suited to warm, sunny positions, pots and vegetable garden beds, Capsicum Baccatum (Bishop's Crown Chilli) produces fruit over an extended growing season when regularly harvested. Its colourful chillies can be used fresh in cooking, sauces, salsas and preserves, while the attractive fruit also provides ornamental interest.
