Chilli Pepper Havana Gold Havana Gold is a mild chilli with an outstanding flavour. The plants are easy to grow, with an open growth habit, and produce an abundant crop of rich orange chillies which ripen early in the season. The chillies are crisp, thin fleshed, quite mild and have a rich, complex flavour. Excellent for eating fresh when the flavour can be really appreciated, they also dry extremely well. Sow indoors from January to April, in soil 0.5 cm deep, in separate pots if possible. Pot on in late May outdoors either in containers as patio plants or in a well protected site. Peppers can be slow to germinate so allow up 35+ days. Compost should not be too moist to prevent the seeds from rotting. All chilli peppers are very sensitive to the cold.
