Sriracha Pepper - This is the hot and spicy red pepper commonly used to make the famous Sriracha spicy sauce, also known as rooster sauce. It has a high heat level and great for making fresh heirloom tomato salsa. Simply dice a fresh sriracha pepper and then add it to your salsa but be careful because it will be on fire! This pepper is typically eaten raw and can be used in many of the same ways as serranos and jalapenos. The large 5” Sriracha peppers turn from green to red while maturing on the plant, and mature red will have the best flavor. The tall 36” plants produce all summer long.
These extra large peppers will turn red while maturing on the plant. They are very spicy and grow 5” long on strong 36” tall plants. It is very prolific and will produce peppers all season long.
Sriracha hot sauce, also known as rooster sauce, is made with these peppers. The Sriracha recipe is simple and uses only a few ingredients. The Sriracha pepper can also be used when green just like any other hot pepper. Chop some fresh sriracha pepper into your salsa and be careful because it will be on fire!

I grew three of these Sriracha peppers this year.
Very productive, but I concur with other review.
No heat, no flavor. Probably will not use, and will end up in compost pile.

No heat little flavor
Was somewhat disappointed that there was very little heat to these and not much of a distinctive flavor going to try them again this year

These fabulous peppers added lots of color to our patio pots. So pretty in multiple colors, plus you can pick them and add to salsa for a nice spicy kick. These are fun in any ornamental edible garden.
We let these hang dry, then ground them up – they made the tastiest pepper flakes. They have a nice kick, but good flavor too. Easy to grow plants, pretty peppers.
Great seeds, good germination, plants grow quickly and produce lots of pods for roasting. Great flavor and just the right amount of spice. We grow these every year in our garden in Utah.
I tried these purple Cherokee seeds on 2024. This is the first time growing these purple Cherokees and were amazed at the ease of germination and taste
These germinated in two days. I started them in midsummer and they fruited by late fall in my zone 10b garden and are overwintering just fine. I’ll have more to harvest by late spring. I made my red sauce for pozole for Christmas with my harvest!
Big Chiles with just enough heat to add to green enchilada's. The flavor after roasting is fantastic. Since green chile roasting is not a local thing in Eastern Washington we us a weed burner. The smell of roasting peppers is heavenly.
My favorite green chili to grow. Plenty of heat and after roasting sit perfectly on a hamburger. Also my wonderful wife makes Puelo Chili jam that is a real crowd pleaser
Plants were quite bushy and full of peppers. Great flavor. Made a wonderful little Ristra with some of the later harvested peppers. Will continue to grow these yearly.
These plants were super healthy all season long and produced a LOT of fruit. They'll add heat and color to any dish. They made my cowboy candy and pickled jalapeños extra special!
Very good germination rate and super abundant and delicious peppers!. I had them in 10g and 5g fabric pots and they very well the last two years. Amazing to smoke and dry / freeze to have throughout the year! I just made a spicy brown porter mustard with scotch bonnets! Also made an amazing roasted scotch bonnet hot sauce! yum!
