Though never officially crowned, the Dorset Naga was thought to be the world's hottest chilli in the mid 2000s, and one of the first chillies whose pods measured in above 1 million SHU.

The golden cousin of the prolific Cayenne Red, this beautiful chilli matures to a bright yellow and has a slightly sweeter tang than it's red counterpart.

The Cayenne chilli is prolific, grown all over the world and used in a variety of cuisines. When an ingredient panel lists 'red chilli', it's likely to contain the cayenne.

A European heirloom chilli, the Black Czechoslovakian looks like an almost black Jalapeno until it ripens to a deep red, but it is milder and sweeter.

The Black Cuban is a striking chilli plant, producing round erect-growing pods. The fruit is black until maturity when they turn a bright red.  They can be cooked or eaten raw, and have a slightly sour taste.

A striking plant that produces pretty purple leaves, flowers and pods, the Cayenne Lilac will brighten up every veggie patch.

The Cayenne Green is a prolific chilli, milder than its red, yellow and lilac counterparts. Fresh tasting, they are commonly used in their fresh state.

As the name suggests, this plant produces thicker pods than the traditional thin cayennes, but is identical in every other way!
