You need to pick carefully the type of culinary use you put it to but\u00a0they do look spectacular in a dish. It is\u00a0generally\u00a0known as a &#8216;birds beak&#8217; and the name for the plant means &#8216;tree&#8217; and when growing essentially it looks like a bright red birds beak hanging on a miniature chili tree. The heat is quite searing and fast but luckily dies off quite fast too. They stay bright red when dried so are often used for decorative purposes.<\/p>\n<p>They are usually about 7-10cm long and only about 5-7mm diameter through.<\/p>\n<p>The flesh is papery and fairly thin when fully ripe and they are a bit of a pain to cut and strip the seeds from so it&#8217;s bets to leave them whole to impart their flavour and heat in cooking.<\/p>\n<p>The bushes are generally very hardy but thrive on sun heat and radiant ground heat. They are quite attractive to grow as decorative plants as well as for eating.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Chile_de_\u00e1rbol\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Chile_de_\u00e1rbol\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Chile_de_\u00e1rbol<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"http:\/\/www.eatmorechiles.com\/Arbol.html\" href=\"http:\/\/www.eatmorechiles.com\/Arbol.html\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.eatmorechiles.com\/Arbol.html<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Scoville_scale\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Scoville_scale\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Scoville_scale<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"2248\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.chickenfish.cc\/bio\/chili-de-arbol\/chili_de_arbol02\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.chickenfish.cc\/bio\/wp-content\/media\/chili_de_arbol02.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"640,480\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.2&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;iPhone 5s&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1401712636&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4.12&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;32&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.0022172949002217&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"chili_de_arbol02\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.chickenfish.cc\/bio\/wp-content\/media\/chili_de_arbol02-600x450.jpg\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2248\" src=\"http:\/\/www.chickenfish.cc\/bio\/wp-content\/media\/chili_de_arbol02-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"chili_de_arbol02\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chickenfish.cc\/bio\/wp-content\/media\/chili_de_arbol02-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.chickenfish.cc\/bio\/wp-content\/media\/chili_de_arbol02-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.chickenfish.cc\/bio\/wp-content\/media\/chili_de_arbol02-363x272.jpg 363w, https:\/\/www.chickenfish.cc\/bio\/wp-content\/media\/chili_de_arbol02-462x346.jpg 462w, https:\/\/www.chickenfish.cc\/bio\/wp-content\/media\/chili_de_arbol02.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This is just a quick photo snap of a flower and a ripening De Arbol on a small bush in late autumn.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The needle like\u00a0Chili De Arbol looks like it should be\u00a0dangerous &#8211; and generally it is pretty hot to eat &#8211; up to about 30,000 scoville just below a cayenne pepper.
