Is anyone growing these little red beauties from Calabria? I remember these from my Godparents when I was a child. If I remember these have a warm heat, not overpowering. Then there were the "just wave the peppers over the dish" hot peppers they used to grow also. Both from Calabria.  

If anyone has seeds originally from Calabria , they'd sell or gift + $ship , please pm me . I'd love to grow some for an Aunt (the only elder left in our family). Also to grow them for myself.

Thanks so much !

Hi Pattee sorry I can't help u w the seeds but I am a devotee of calabrian chili flakes, I buy them in the city at Kalustyan's, they are awesome!

Rafael , that's what I remember about them - sooo good! Haven't found them out here yet , I'll look on line for the flakes or jarred . Would love to grow them though.  
Thanks for the reply!

I do.They have them at Seeds From Italy.Jim

Jim thank you! I'd forgotten all about them . Are they the round or long or both? 

Round.My grand father is from Calabria.Satans Kiss

Thanks Jim , I found them on their site and they do have the round. I'm going to order them today.

Oh and welcome to the forum !! :-D

I remember my father growing these.  When they were still tender and green he would eat 1 or 2 with his tomato salad.  Even a touch of them would burn my mouth but they didn't seem to bother him.
Unfortunately those seeds are long lost  I now have these long and spirally red hot peppers not sure of origin and they are not too hot just the way I like them.
buongusto
 

Joe , my Dad used to eat them green as well. We used to bring them back from a visit to my Godparents . My parents never grew them , shame because maybe then the seeds would have stayed in our family. 

Glad you found a good pepper for you !

Glad I could  help.

Abbruzzese, too. Bocci di Diavolo. Have seen them offered by other than Seeds of Italy.

I'm a chile devotee, too. In relation to a jalapeno, how hot are the calabrian chiles?
