Appearance: Glossy, thin-walled, lantern-shaped peppers grow 1–2 inches long and ripen from green to bright orange.
Flavor & Uses: Intensely hot with floral, citrus, and tropical fruit notes; excellent for hot sauces, salsas, marinades, curries, and pepper powders.
Growth Habit: Compact, bushy plants typically reach 2–4 feet tall and produce abundant peppers in warm conditions. Stake plants if branches become heavily loaded.
Growing Notes: Start seeds indoors 8–10 weeks before the last frost in consistently warm soil. After frost danger passes, transplant into fertile, well-drained soil in full sun. Water evenly and provide support as needed.
Note: Always wear protective gloves when handling or cutting them to avoid severe capsaicin burns on your skin or eyes.
