Description:
The Dragon's Toe Pepper comes to us all the way from Southern China. This uniquely wrinkly hybrid pepper has an excellent flavor and pungency used in a lot of different fresh or cooked Asian foods.
Dragon's Toe pepper plants grow an abundance of these wrinkly pods that stretch as far as 5" long. Pods will change colors from green to red and have a distorted pendant shape to them when they reach maturity. This is an unusual variety that looks incredibly stunning and can be a great ornamental addition to your garden or patio.
The flavor of the Dragon's Toe Pepper is incredibly sweet, but with a kick. This pepper can get pretty hot, with heat levels soaring up to 100,000 SHUs! They make a great addition to stir fry or salads, as well as roasted or grilled. Give them a try – you won’t regret it!
