Description:
The Brazilian Starfish Pepper is a tiny pepper that looks just like its namesake when it grows off the pepper plant. This unique variety has people wanting to grow it themselves in their own gardens!
Brazilian Starfish plants grow to about 4 ft, tall and produce many of these star-shaped peppers. These pods grow to about 2 inches in size and ripen from green to a beautiful red. Fruits will be shiny and grow five different lobes jutting out like a star.
This juicy pepper has a floral, fruity flavor with medium heat. The flavor and heat mixture make it enjoyable to eat raw on salads or in salsas. Just slightly hotter than a jalapeno, the Brazilian Starfish is one just about everyone can and most certainly will enjoy!
