DESCRIPTION :

Kanthari Chilli is grown in Kerala & some parts of Tamil Nadu in India. This is an awesome looking plant, which tends to get quite bushy and grows similar to the Tabasco. When this plant is grown in a pot it grows approximate one meter in height. However, when it is planted in the ground it can double in height. The bird’s eye chili plant is a perennial with small, tapering fruits, often two or three, at a node. The fruits are very pungent. The flowers are greenish-white or yellowish-white.

Chilies are very small in size(not more than 2-3 cm)yet pungent and hot, this chilies will make your eyes water if you eat one. Most kanthari mulaku sold in Kerala market are hybrid ones, It will be larger in size and will be mild in flavor and spice content.Bird’s eye chili flower faces down and chili is upward facing the sky.

Birds eye chillies are perennial crop in Kerala which can be cultivated or naturally germinated by bird dropping. However in some parts of the world farmers grow it as a annual crop. In Kerala the trend has not caught up because of land availability, labor shortage, seed availability and large scale cloning of kanthari chili plant, like tissue culture bananas.

Harvesting kanthari chillies is a time consuming process and you need to be very careful while harvesting because new flowers will be almost ready at the same node. So while plucking the mature chili new flowers get damaged and most of the times it will come along with the harvested chili.
