Pepper (Hot) - Firecracker 🔥🔥🔥

$399 USD
Title

🛒 View cart

The edible ornamental Firecracker Pepper sends showy clusters of 1" tapered fruit up and out, like a Roman candle, producing bursts of white, green, lavender, yellow, orange, and red, as it moves into full ripeness. When you get past the sensation that you’ve just eaten a flare, you’ll taste some fruitiness. Adds a sparkle of color and spiciness to any dish or marinade.

  • High yields
  • Edible ornamental
  • Harvest any color
  • Good for containers

Great buy
Firecrackers are one of my favorite peppers and I can't wait until they're ready to eat! I want to start growing a variety and will definitely order from seedsnow.com again. Thanks!

Quick service
It took less than 2 weeks for the seeds to arrive. Now, we have to actually plant them & keep the seeds watered! The website was easy to navigate, we received what we ordered (plus some bonus seeds we hadn't expected!), and there are directions to help us get started. Very user friendly.

I ordered a wide range of seeds from several online locations; seedsnow.com was the only place where none of my seeds would germinate. I germinated shishito, padron, jalapeño, pineapple tomatoes, and Thai chilies without issue and yet somehow the 3 types of seeds I purchased from here: firecracker, ...

HOT!
The seeds came very fast. The plants all grew well. The peppers leave your mouth tingling. I liked the flavor but they were very hot and too hot for the rest of my family to eat.
