Fish Hot Pepper Seeds. This African-American heirloom predates the 1870s. With handsome, variegated foliage, the 18 to 24", feature decorative green and purple foliage splashed with white. High yields of very hot, pointed fruits, about 1-1/2" long, range from white with green stripes, to orange with brown streaks, to a brilliant red - some deep purple, too. Most of the 2-in. long fruits have variegated colors before ripening to red, an attractive, attention-getting choice for containers. Great heat tolerance. Very hot, and used traditionally in shellfish and fish cookery. Also suitable for drying. This heirloom is considered by many to be the best variety to use when cooking fish and shellfish. Scoville Rating: 5,000 to 10,000. Harvest 80 days from transplant.
