Cherry Hot Pepper Seeds

Do you love pickling and preserving flavorful hot peppers? The Red Cherry Hot pepper is the one for you! Also known as the Cherry Bomb pepper, the well-known Hot Cherry Pepper is named for its cherry-like shape but it’s the flavor that people keep coming back for.

The compact pepper plants grow to 2.5 ft. tall and boast high yields of these 1-2" long, thick-walled pods. The sweet Cherry Hot peppers will ripen from green to red, and we recommend harvesting them when they turn red for their irreplaceable flavors. If you frequently harvest, this will help improve the plant’s yield and you’ll get an abundance of peppers.

With medium heat and a sweet taste, the Red Cherry Pepper is great to add to a variety of culinary uses. The Red Spicy Cherry pepper is very fleshy and juicy and is great for putting in vinegar and stuffing. It is indispensable in meals where you need a hot pepper with substance, and it is a perfect garnish for many dishes. There is a reason the Cherry is so popular!
