Chilli Pepper Cayenne Red January 31, 2013
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Abingdon, Oxon United Kingdom  
Ordered these seeds last season and had five plants in the polytunnel.  Yields from each plant were huge and this year will only put one plant into the tunnel (or two at the most).  Viability of seeds is still high this year and already have a number of seedlings.
