Cha Cha is an ornamental Capsicum annuum variety grown primarily for its decorative appeal. It is valued for its compact growth habit and colourful fruit display, making it suitable for container growing, patios, and indoor or sheltered positions.
Pods are small, upright, and conical, forming in clusters above the foliage. Fruits typically ripen through multiple colour stages, often starting pale or green before developing yellow, orange, and red tones. The upright habit and dense fruit set create a strong visual impact.
Flavour is light and neutral with a gentle warmth. Heat is regarded as Mild, providing only light pungency. No formally published Scoville Heat Unit figure is available for this variety.
Plants are compact and bushy, usually remaining under 40 cm in height. Cha Cha performs well in pots and small containers and is commonly grown as a decorative plant, though the fruits are edible.
The breeder and detailed background of Cha Cha are not formally documented. It is best recognised as an ornamental chilli selected for appearance rather than culinary intensity or regional heritage.
Germination temperature 28–30 °C. See our Water and Feed Guides for advise.
Chilli Seeds Qty is 5 per pack unless stated.
