Description:
Thai peppers are known to deliver in terms of flavor and heat - and the Thai Compact Pepper is no different! These pepper plants deliver the same spicy peppers on a more compact plant that makes for versatile gardening and planting.
These pepper plants may reach up to 3 ft. tall, but generally hover around 2 ft. which makes them a perfect variety for container growing on your porch or patio. The Thai Compact plant grows plenty of these slender, ornamental peppers that grow up to 3" long. Pods will mature from green to red, but will have beautiful colors throughout the maturing process that will stand out from the crowd!
Thai Compact peppers are small-sized, fiery, hot peppers that’ll have a very spicy flavor and punch to your dishes. With a medium hot heat level, these peppers will taste delicious on fresh foods like salads, sandwiches, and more. The Thai Compact peppers also dry very easily, making them a good candidate for chili pepper powder and pepper flakes.
