The Bishops Crown Chilli is a mildly spicy pepper that goes by several many names. It is most well-known in Brazil, where it is called Ubatuba Cambuci after the two Brazilian towns of the same name.
The plant requires space to grow as it may reach a height of up to 2 metres, however it has the potential to yield a good crop of 50-100 pods and is suitable for overwintering. Because the plant has the potential to produce an abundant harvest of up to 50–100 pods, it is an excellent variety of chilli for individuals who wish to preserve their harvest.
There is an additional version of the Bishop's Crown that is known as the Nepalese Bell, and it is an excellent choice if you are able to locate seeds for it.
Seed Quantity 15 Seeds
Species Capsicum baccatum
Origin Brazil
Heat Level (Scoville Rating) Medium (5,000-30,000 SHU)
Pod Description The Bishops Crown Chilli pods feature a unique, wing-like shape that changes from lime-green to a bright red colour when fully mature, typically reaching a size of approximately 6cm in length and width.
Also known as Christmas Bell, Ubatuba Cambuci, Aji Flor, Joker's Hat, Friar's Hat, Bishop's Hat, Campane, Monk's Hat, Pimenta Cambuci, Tinkerbell
Growing Info
Sow seedlings in the spring in a sunny and sheltered area. Bishops Crown Chilli has the potential to reach 1.5-2m in height and should be kept in full sun with consistent heat for the best results. Germination can be on the slow side and take a few weeks.
Ideally, Bishops Crown Chilli plants thrive in a temperature of 20°C, with cooler-temperate climates best suited for a greenhouse or polytunnel. It should be noted that ripening takes an extended period.
Cooking & Eating

Finely chop with garlic, spring onion and a smaller hotter chilli and fold through couscous with butter and seasoning. Pickle the smaller ones whole.

Beautifully box of biennial seeds. I haven’t sown them yet but I’m looking forward to doing so. Delivered promptly and the packaging is all recyclable and so prettily presented with two cute strawflowers inside. Thank you
Ordered a couple of chilli varieties that I hadn’t found anywhere else. They arrived within just a couple of days (I’m in Kent) and included an extra package of seeds as a “thank you” which I thought was such a lovely touch, thank you! Very excited to get growing 😊

From the moment the cute seed box arrives at your door, until the seedling pop up to say hello...they never disappoint. I've purchased a few different boxes of seeds and know they'll not be my last! Thank you 🐞🌸

I already have baby craspedia seedlings and can't wait to see them grow. I bought a couple of craspedia plants last year and they produce the most lovely yellow pom poms. They look great dotted in three's around the house and I also use them when I make dried wreaths.

This was gifted to my mum for her birthday and she loves it. You've got everything you need for flower pressing, including all instructions.
Nicely packaged and fast delivery

One of our favourites in the range. Balanced subtle tones, good burn time and will definitely buy again. Matt

Quickly dispatched and delivered. Arrived safely. Nicely labelled clearly with instructions on how to sow. Can’t go wrong. Would definitely order from again.

Arrived on Time and loved the packaging. About to sow some seeds and hopefully for some chillies in Summer

Excellent arrived safely beautifully boxed.
Looking forward to sowing these seeds soon.
Many thanks

Top quality seeds and so beautifully presented - I bought them for myself but it was like receiving a gorgeous gift!

Great service, prompt delivery and beautifully packaged. It was for a gift so not tried them but they look lovely.

I am happy to give a 5 star review for Bishy Barnabee’s Cottage Garden Flower and Herb Box.
I loved receiving the beautiful package of seeds, with some dried flowers enclosed and not an ounce of plastic in sight!
All thoughtfully eco friendly wrapped.
The delivery was super quick and I’m working my way through sewing the seeds, on the monthly instructions contained on each packet.
I think any of the seed boxes would make a beautiful gift or why not treat yourself!
I’ll certainly be buying more as I expand my cut flower garden 🌸🐞

Another beautifully presented gift box of seeds delivered quickly and professionally presented. I bought as a gift for a friend who was delighted. I will definitely be back again.

I was so pleased to receive this box of seeds, beautifully presented with a lovely little dried flower to add a special touch, thank you, can’t wait to get started on sowing them .

I can’t rate these seeds highly enough! Germination was super fast and baby plants are lovely and strong. Looking forward to a flower filled 2023 , and will definitely be ordering lots more goodies from Bbcg x
