Nice ornamental pepper, with small, deep purple and green leaves and light purple tiny pepper pods throughout the plant. Plants grow to around 15" high with a nice bush shape that does not require staking or support.
Pepper pods ripen from light purple to bright red in late summer. It grows well in smaller containers, from half a gallon to a 2-gallon size. I've been growing for the past 3 years, with no issues with diseases or pests.
The quickest pepper I've had starts producing pepper pods. Pods are edible, but the spice level is a bit spicier than jalapenos.
Common Names: Trifetti Hot Pepper
Botanical name: Capsicum Annuum
Color: Green, turning first to dark purple and then red at final maturity
yes id did buy and receive bamboo seeds from you. i planted same and now cautiously await some indication the sprouting will begin. we are in northern nj where it is quite cold so i am keeping the plantings in a planter system we use for seedlings. only time luck and patience will tell the ultimate story. if the seeds come to be small plants we will replant into pots until spring and after that we are guardedly optimistic. thanks for the request and service. stewart a farber
I do not have an indoor garden so I am waiting until spring to plant. I will try planting closer to Feb or March in small pods watering with spray bottle, and slowly introduce the plants to outdoor conditions.
