At Terra Nova, we're always looking for new ideas and inspiration, transforming even an ordinary garden into an art object. A few years ago, our pepper tradition began on the estate—and today, it's a vibrant collection that encompasses the world's hottest varieties, rare ornamental species, and sweet finds.

We acquired our first hot peppers in 2020–2021: Trinidad Scorpion plants, grown from seed, are still growing on the estate and delighting us with their harvest. Gradually, the collection expanded, adding classic and chocolate Carolina Reapers. With the opening of our greenhouse and the launch of our hydroponics project in 2023, we began seriously pursuing breeding and searching for rare varieties.
