Pepper-Thai Bird
Capsicum annuum
When fully grown, Thai chiles are thin, pointy peppers and turn an orange to red color, sometimes with some brown to purple. When unripe (green) they are hot and full of "green pepper" flavor, and amazing raw. Green peppers are used in green curries in Thai cuisine. They also have loose, spicy seeds, so drying the mature, red peppers, and crushing into flakes is an easy way to preserve. But, what makes Thai chiles really stand out, is cooking with the mature Chiles. When cooked, Thai Bird Chile's hold their flavour, and their heat can pack a punch adding depth to any dish.

“All items arrived quickly and well packaged. I usually expect to have one or two live items out of a batch, but they are all thriving. I couldn’t be happier!”

“My live plants were packed like they belonged in Ft Knox. 😂 They really were packed beautifully. Only one plant, a bee balm, is questionable but signs that it will recover are happening. All in all I am thrilled with my plants and seeds. Some of my coreopsis have already sprouted!”

“I’ve ordered seeds from Whitwam Organics 3 or 4 times now. I love the simple packaging, clear planting guidelines, and variety they offer. Great germination rates!! The bare root plants I’ve ordered have come healthy, so healthy that the wild rabbits always approve of my menu upgrades! 😂🐰”
