Details
Small plants set lots of unique, glowing, golden-orange, carrot-shaped fruit that are borne upright on plants - so colorful! These are superb for the flower garden or as a potted plant. They are excellent raw in salads or salsas, and may be grilled, fried, dried, or pickled. The Tequila Sunrise pepper sets loads of dark green fruit that turn to bright orange when fully ripe. Non-Isolated.
