2012 AAS Winner! This chili pepper will be a favorite both as a culinary pepper and as an ornamental. The elongated, 3 to 4 inch fruits of green maturing to glossy red have an excellent, mildly spicy flavor that outshone all comparison varieties in the AAS trials. The well-branched, upright, 24 inch tall plants have good heat and cold tolerance and are incredibly easy to grow, requiring no staking. They are very attractive grown in containers or patio gardens with their prolific display of colorful, cascading fruits that are protected from sun scorch by the dense canopy of foliage. An all-around good choice for both market growers and home gardeners.

Fantastic Plant
Apr 7, 2026  |  By Glen Dempsey
I sowed my seeds in late Dec 2026 (zone 9b) and this plant has flourished! It Is Highly, and I mean Highly prolific. It is currently early April and there are over 60+ pods developing and has about 30+ flowers. I can't speak about the actual pepper as yet, but this is a fantastic and easy growing cayenne variety!
