Pepper - Peruvian

Vibrant golden-orange, 6–8 inch tapered peppers with a fruity, tangy heat deeply rooted in Peruvian cuisine. Lively and aromatic, they bring bold flavor to salsas, marinades, and traditional sauces. Bushy, productive plants thrive in warm, sunny gardens and yield steadily throughout the season — harvest when peppers reach full color for maximum aroma and heat.
