Tepin is believed by most experts to be the original wild chilli. The attractive round bushes can be covered in bright pea-sized berries. A wild variety - germination erratic and fruit takes 3-4 months to ripen. Best yields produced in their 2nd year from seed. Over-winter indoors and you could be enjoying the “mother of all chillies” by mid-summer.
