Black Pearl Chilli, wow its a bit of a looker with its vibrant purple flowers and glossy dark green to black leaves. Definitely one of my all time favourite plants sown from seed....
HI Debbie..."ooooh" so lovely a shade of purple the flower,sure looks healthy to!! Enjoy your week...hope its not raining like it is here we are on our 10th sraight day!! yuck!!!
oh that is such a beautiful plant, and how satisfying it is to grow lovely plants from seed too.
Thank you for your kind comments on my blog. I am a very poor blogger sometimes! If I let things go on too long, I lose the will to live with blogging sometimes, thankfully I have now caught up.
The header is of Sandsend near Whitby, we try to make an annual trip there at least once a year as its one of our favourite places. My black lab loves the beaches.
That really is a beautiful plant, Deb. I've never even heard of it! You grew it from seed? Where did you get the seeds? I might just have to hunt some up!
