Details
This chili hails from Italy and produces elongated, bright yellow and slightly curved fruits. Pods are about 4” long and thin-walled. These peppers are great for drying and grinding into a nice yellow chili powder. The plants grow vigorously and can be overcome by large yields, so be sure to cage or trellis these pepper plants. Fruits have a citrus aftertaste that is reminiscent of the taste of a cedar, hence the name. Non-Isolated.
SHU: 20,000 - 30,000
