Terrifcally hot, citrus-flavored heirloom popular as a seasoning in Peru, its country of origin. Bright yellow, crinkled, cone- shaped fruits are about 2-1/2" long and 1/2" wide, with less than 15 seeds per pepper. Dense plants grow to about 2 ft. high and wide, and are typically covered with fruits. Makes an excellent choice for container gardening.

Spicy little treats
Jan 20, 2024  |  By Steve Thompson
Extremely prolific plants and disease resistant, these peppers are a great addition to any garden. The plants (more like bushes) are very attractive, almost ornamental. The peppers are a great addition to a batch of pickled peppers with great flavor and color. They make excellent salsa and freeze well. They also are good dried.
