Took some care to get the seedlings going, but once established, they thrived. The heat level is perfect for my homemade hot sauces.

My garden has never looked better! These heirloom peppers add charm and heat. Birds seem to avoid them, which is a bonus. The flavor in cooking is exceptional, really fresh and bold.
