Chilli Birdseye

Chilli Birdseye is a fiery favourite that thrives in sunny, open spaces and delivers both flavour and flair. This compact plant produces a striking contrast of lush green foliage and vivid chillies that shift from green to bright red as they ripen. It’s ideal for pots, borders, or tucked into a sunny corner of the vegetable garden. With its upright growing habit and manageable size, Birdseye is a great option for gardeners with limited space who still want a bold harvest.

Beyond its ornamental appeal, this chilli is renowned for its intense heat. Each fruit may be small, but it brings serious spice to the table. It’s a dependable cropper, offering an abundance of pods throughout the season. Whether you’re growing for culinary use or visual interest, Birdseye delivers on both fronts. Its ability to flourish in containers makes it perfect for patios or balconies, and it adds structure and drama when planted en masse.

Grow it for the heat, keep it for the colour, it’s a chilli that earns its place.
