Description:
Also known as the Bishop's Hat pepper, Bishop's Cap, Christmas Bell, or Joker's Hat, the Bishops Crown peppers are spicy little chilis. It is named for its unique shape which appears as a bishop's crown or a bell.
The Bishop Crown pepper plant will grow around 3-4 feet tall which is impressive to grow for its easiness. Peppers will ripen from green to red, and pods will have smooth and shiny skin.
Not only do we love this pepper for its exotic-looking shapes, but we also adore the Bishop's Crown chili pepper's sweet flavors! The flavors are apple-like fruit with a little bit of heat to keep your tongue tingling. The Bishop Crown chili is very versatile to use in the kitchen where it is great as a snacking pepper, and for marinades, stuffing, hot sauces, jellies, salsas, and many more culinary uses.
