Pepper 'Peru Scarlet Lantern'

  • Product number: 209215
  • Origin: America
  • Latin: Capsicum chinense

An eye-catcher: the hanging, lantern-shaped fruits change color from white, through purple to red. All these colors hang on 1 plant! The plants grow well in pots and yield a good harvest outside the greenhouse, which is quite rare for a Capsicum chinense. The taste of the crispy fruits leans towards lemon and they are quite hot.

Denominations:
Latin: Capsicum chinense
Dutch: Peper
