- Chinese 5 Color
Description
An ornamental type pepper that has 5 stages of color chages going from purple to cream, yellow, orange and then finally settling on red when fully ripened.
The peppers range usually from 30k-50k on the Scoville scale, So it hovers a bit higher than the standard Scoville measurement of a jalapeno.
Flavor wise, not the most flavorful pepper, tastes somewhat like a sweet pepper at first but the flavor does not develop much after that. I good stinging heat, good to spice up a mild salsa
a pretty prolific plant that enjoys warm weather and looks gorgeous as an ornamental because of the range of colors.
- Days to maturity: 80-90
