Description:

Every once in a while, an awesome and exotic hot pepper makes its appearance in the chile industry - the Atomic Starfish is that pepper! Native to Brazil, this pepper is one you'll want to add to your garden!

The Atomic Starfish pepper plant grows up to 4 ft. tall - taller when planted directly into the ground - and produces good yields of starfish-shaped peppers, which look so special. These pepper pods ripen from green to bright red when they mature and have shiny, smooth skin with lobes. This is a very easy variety to germinate, similar to its relative the Brazilian Starfish pepper.

Atomic Starfish peppers have a spicy and unique flavor that you must try. Their heat levels range between 5,000-30,000 SHUs, so they're the perfect variety to use both dried and fresh. Get your hands on the exotic Atomic Starfish pepper seeds!

high yield

very happy first time with pepper joes. I ordered many varieties with high yield of all. The atomic starfish is very tasty and just a hint of heat.

Sweet and sour beauties!

They grow very lanky at first. I topped one off because of this. Don’t Do It! The 4 that germinated are just under 6’ tall and full of peppers! Just ate my 1st one on 8/25 in zone 7. Looks like I will have 150 of these delicious little treats! Probably a good thing they were 40% germination like all the seeds I get here

Surprisingly Amazing

I may not have the greenest thumb. And I live in a tough place to grow hot chilis. I'm on the ocean in New England, the wind never stops, and our seasons are short. So if a hot chili makes it to maturity in my container garden, it's a hearty variety. These plants grew to a shocking 6'6" (including the 7 gal container). Each plant produced about 2 dozen fruit. It's September 10 and I just tasted the first fruit to ripen. These far and away have the most interesting taste of any pepper I've ever eaten. Sweet, floral, crunchy. Add the heat similar to a typical cherry pepper (20k SHUs?) and you have a winner. This will be a regular in my garden going forward!
