“2012 AAS Winner! This chili pepper will be a favorite both as a culinary pepper and as an ornamental. The elongated, 3 to 4 inch fruits of green maturing to glossy red have an excellent, mildly spicy flavor that outshone all comparison varieties in the AAS trials. The well-branched, upright, 24 inch tall plants have good heat and cold tolerance and are incredibly easy to grow, requiring no staking. They are very attractive grown in containers or patio gardens with their prolific display of colorful, cascading fruits that are protected from sun scorch by the dense canopy of foliage.”  Text from Totally Tomatoes.
