Pepper Jalapeno Purple Tiger
In stock
Description
A true cross between two famous varieties, the Purple Tiger Jalapeno is one of the most beautiful pepper plants you will ever encounter. Surrounded by dazzling variegated leaves, the fruits are 2-3 inch slim jalapenos which start out purple and ripen to red, but as they ripen the striping effects slowly appear on the deep red (Stripes on fruits in picture not yet developed). They have a sweetness to them with a medium heat, making them perfect for adding vibrant colour to salads, salsas and many other recipes. (8,000 - 12,000 SHU) Medium Heat.
Sowing Advice
Surface-sow or barely cover the seeds indoors, and keep moist and warm above 20C. (Peppers generally demand warmer conditions than tomatoes to germinate successfully). When sprouts appear move them to a sunny window. Set out well-developed transplants when weather is warm. Peppers need rich moist soil and warm sunny conditions to flourish. Best sown in early spring.
