Description:
Description:
And yet another variation of the Peter Pepper and a really cool, unique strain to say the least. Not only is the Orange Peter Pepper a real conversation starter, but it will 'light up' your garden with this unusual bright color…and shape.
Orange Peter pepper plants will grow to around 4 ft. tall and can spread out really well. These peppers will fill out the plant and grow up to 4" long each. The smooth and shiny pods have a...unique...pepper shape that gives them the nickname "Willy Pepper." But, this variety has a nice shiny orange color that provides a nice pop of color to your garden!
The Orange Peter is sweeter but still tangy in flavor and has a surprising medium heat that can be anywhere from 5,000-30,000 SHUs. These peppers can be used in both fresh and cooked foods, as well as dried into a nice chili powder. Or, if you like ornamental peppers, keep this up and give your guests something to really talk about. You just can't beat the Orange Willy Pepper!
*Non-Isolated - Disclaimer: While some of our varieties marked non-isolated were isolated when grown, they are an unstable pepper seed variety that may produce plants with genetic variations, making them less predictable and consistent in terms of traits such as flavor, size, and heat level. While this can lead to unique and exciting variations, it's important to note that these seeds may not reliably reproduce the same characteristics from one generation to the next. Planting non-isolated/unstable pepper seeds can be an adventurous gardening experience, but be prepared for some degree of variability in the resulting pepper plants. We will not be able to offer replacements for variation in traits.
