These thick-fleshed peppers are ideal for stuffing, roasting, frying, and pickling — their thin skin peels away effortlessly after roasting. What makes this heirloom truly special is its dramatic color progression: fruits ripen from sunny yellow to vibrant orange to deep red, creating a breathtaking display in your garden and on your plate. The flavor delivers a definite but not overwhelming heat, making it versatile for a wide range of culinary applications. Harvest pale yellow peppers in just 58 days or wait until day 83 for fully ripe red fruits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(27, 90, 17);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGermination Rate: 85%.
