The Peter Pepper Hot Pepper is a unique and eye-catching variety known for its distinctive shape and fiery heat. This pepper is easily recognized by its unusual, human-like form, which gives it its playful name. Despite its lighthearted appearance, the Peter Pepper packs a serious punch, making it a favorite among heat lovers and collectors alike.

With a heat level of 5,000 to 30,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU), the Peter Pepper offers a moderate to hot level of heat, making it suitable for those who enjoy a spicy kick without going into the superhot category. Its flavor is slightly fruity and earthy, with a mild sweetness that balances the heat, making it a versatile addition to salsas, sauces, and pickles.

The peppers grow to about 3 to 4 inches long and have a wrinkled, tapered shape, resembling a human figure. When ripe, they transition from green to a vibrant red color, adding a pop of color to your garden. The plants themselves grow to about 2 to 3 feet tall, producing a moderate yield of peppers throughout the growing season.

The time from flowering to fruit ripening is around 75 to 90 days, and the plant thrives in warm, sunny conditions. It's a great choice for both beginner and experienced gardeners who are looking for a pepper that's as fun to grow as it is to use in the kitchen.
