HOT Mad Hatter F 1
Unique disc, green to red 2-3.5 in./5-9 cm long x 2-2.5 in./5-6 cm wide
Extra large, vigorous
Flat-disc peppers are crunchy and crisp, with a delicate floral scent and rich flavor that intensifies/sweetens as it matures. In hot, dry climates, a small number of fruit will have a touch of heat close to the seed cavity, but fruit wings are always sweet. Best in-ground with support. All-America Selections Winner. Pot-a-Peño's unique compact habit is perfect for patio containers. Early maturing means this will be one of the first peppers to fruit in the garden. Tons of jalapeño fruit grow under a dense canopy of small, dark green leaves.
