The Ornamental Chilli F1 ‘Basket of Fire’ from Floranova is a top-performing, award-winning hybrid specifically bred for high visual impact in hanging baskets and containers. The plant has a semi-trailing, dense habit, allowing it to spill beautifully over edges while remaining extremely productive.
The name comes from the sheer volume of small, hot peppers produced—often hundreds on a single plant—which ripen in a fiery spectrum of colors including cream, purple, orange, and vibrant red. Unlike some purely ornamental types, the ‘Basket of Fire’ peppers are edible and quite hot (rated around 80,000 SHU).
This chilli is notably tolerant of slightly cooler conditions than other varieties, extending its season in the garden. It prefers full sun for maximum fruit production and visual vibrancy, providing months of continuous interest and a unique blend of decorative and culinary appeal.
