My plants were fairly variable, as might be expected from a landrace. I was anticipating round chillies rather than bullet shape, and I am now told, by someone who is familiar with it in its native environment, that it is not the true variety.
This variety was too vigorous when grown in the border, but far more restrained as a pot plant. The specimen below is growing in a standard 3 litre pot.
For other chillies claiming to be the true Dalle Khursani see here or here.
Like the true Dalle Khursani this variety is characterised by an immediate sharp heat which fades quickly, leaving a distinctive flavour with sweet overtones.
