64 days, Open-pollinated, Medium hot
This spicy, 7-8″, tapered and slightly curved heirloom red pepper that is part of the Cayenne group. Fruits are thick, with a good level of heat (5,000 – 30,000 Scoville units), making them versatile in their uses. Vigorous, tall, high-yielding plants bear elongated narrow, glossy red fruits, with the classic wrinkled hip at the stem end. Superb pepper flavor comes through its considerable heat nicely. Most fruits will turn straight from green to red, but 4% off-types will turn from green to yellow to red.
