Peppadew is a very popular variety of chilli that can be grown in many parts of South Africa and will make for a great addition to any garden. Peppadews like warm conditions, so it’s important to get them started indoors as soon as possible. You should also know when to start them out on their own outdoors because if you wait too long, they’ll start growing too tall and weak.
What is the best time to plant peppadews in South Africa?
Peppadews are tropical plants, so they need to be grown in warm conditions. In South Africa, this means growing your peppadews in a greenhouse or hothouse. They can also be grown outdoors if you live near the equator (that’s where most of South Africa is), but it’s not recommended because it will take longer for them to mature than if they’re grown indoors.
If you decide to grow your peppadews outside, make sure that they get plenty of sunlight and water once they flower – they will go dormant during the winter months when no light reaches them!
