Special Features: The Dwarf Chili Pepper is known for its compact size, making it ideal for growing in containers and small spaces. The fruits are small, elongated, and bright red when ripe.

Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist, but well drained. Regular watering is essential to ensure consistent fruit production. Avoid wetting the leaves to prevent fungal diseases.
Pests: Dwarf Chili may be susceptible to pests such as aphids, red spider mites and fruit worms. The use of environmentally friendly products such as potassium soap and Neem oil is recommended for pest control.
