Our Feedback
We were delighted when we received our Black Hamburgh grape vine from Victoriana Nursery Garden. However, having nurtured it for 2 seasons, it failed to progress. We contacted the nursery to let them know of the vines failure and provided some photographs of both the vine and the container it was planted in. Victoriana Nursery had no hesitation in offering to replace the vine. We are delighted with the high level of customer service we have received. Thank you Victoriana we will certainly be shopping with you in the future.
From a very satisfied customer.

How Hot Is That?...Chilli Pepper Heat Guide
Do not plant out (without protection) until fear of frost has passed.
Supplied as compost block-grown plants.
Available from APPROXIMATELY late March / early AprilA lovely variety of chilli, which is basically a 'giant' Cayenne chilli. The fruits grow to 8" (20 cm) long - and sometimes even longer.
Maturing from green to a deep red colour the fruits have a lovely spicy heat which is probably a little below that of the conventionally-sized Cayenne.
We use these in our 'Dragon's Dribble' sauce, which we make each year, and also squeeze them into our Chilli vodka - lovely.
The plant grows to around 3-4 feet (90-120 cm) tall with a slender habit of around 2 feet (60 cm) wide.
