This pepper has been bred to have all the flavor of a scotch bonnet with none of the heat. Perfect for the person in your life who enjoys the flavor of peppers but doesn’t enjoy the mouth burning sensation. Can be used for seasoning dishes, pickling, or fresh eating. This variety is 100 days to ripen after transplanting so it does take a while until you can taste the fruits but it does produce heavily when well fertilized!

Seed Saving
To save seed, allow the pepper to turn red on the plant, then harvest, cut the pepper, scrape out the seeds and dry on a flat surface such as a screen, paper plate or baking sheet. Allow to dry for 1-2 weeks and then store in a paper envelope.
