Red Cherry Hot peppers have a nice robust flavor. They are good for pickling, relish trays, stuffed, or in a salad. There are endless possibilities that include chutneys, a variety of salsas, and can even be used along with other hot and sweet peppers for a pepper jelly that is out of this world! Overall, they are a great addition to any garden.

Bright red peppers 1-1/2” to 2” across grow on bushy 30” tall plants. They are mildly hot, grow upright, have thick walls, and turn from green to red when mature. Easy to grow. Capsicum annuum (80 days) Heirloom - Open-pollinated 

Heat Level: Medium  Scoville 3,000 - 5,000

~ Packet contains 1 oz. seeds. ~ 3,000 seeds

In early spring, start seeds indoors 8 weeks prior to warm nightly temperatures. Place the seeds in sterile media and cover 1/4” deep. Provide 85°F bottom heat, bright light and keep moist at all times. Seeds will germinate in 7 - 21 days. Transplant seedlings into pots and grow until there are 6 true leaves on the plant. Plant them directly into rich soil, 30” apart or into large 5-gallon containers. Harvest peppers when they are red. 


All of our seeds are GMO-free.
