About (From this Label)
These 2-inch flame-shaped peppers mature from green to red and pack heat at both stages. With thin walls, they're perfect for drying, adding to salsas, or making hot pepper vinegar and pickles. Vigorous plants yield abundant fruits, making them a favorite in Mexico (2,500-4,000 Scoville units).
