58 days. Looking for all the world like a bag of marbles had spilled across its topmost branches, this 12- to 14-inch plant produces multitudes of delectable, tiny round peppers in a rainbow of colors: cream, white, yellow, purple, orange, and red!
Just the right size to pop into your mouth, these peppers have a Scoville heat index of 300 — not nearly as bad as Habaneros, but with a definite bite! It makes a fun snack, a bold addition to salsas and sauces, and a colorful garnish!
Start seeds indoors or, in climate with short growing seasons, outdoors at least one week after last frost. If starting indoors, allow 7 to 10 weeks for the seeds to mature into seedlings large enough to transplant safely. Fertilize when the blooms appear, and water well. Fruit is most nutritious if allowed to ripen on the plant. Pkt is 25 seeds.
