I planted mine outdoors, and they survived a very hot summer without issues. The peppers ripened beautifully and taste both sweet and fiery. Truly a standout among the peppers I�ve grown.
These peppers are no joke. I thought I could handle them raw�big mistake! That said, they�re amazing when dried and ground into powder. A little goes a long way in cooking.
I was skeptical at first, but these seeds grew into some of the healthiest pepper plants I�ve ever had. The harvest was generous, and the heat level is extreme yet enjoyable. Highly recommended for spice lovers.
What I love about Devil�s Tongue is that the first taste is almost tropical, then the heat builds and doesn�t let go. It�s not just a novelty�it�s a genuinely flavorful chili.
I collect unusual peppers, and this one did not disappoint. The color, shape, and intensity are exactly as described. Definitely a pepper to brag about with fellow chili enthusiasts.
