Description:
Mad Hatter Peppers won the All-American Selections (AAS) award at the 2018 Fall Garden Festival! And it isn't hard to see why: this exotic pepper plant produces early, has high yields, and is an all-around unique pepper!
These pepper plants will grow up to 4 ft. tall and produce interesting-looking pods that grow 2" long and have a bell shape that makes them look like little hats, with the bottoms coming together like little balloon knots. Mad Hatters ripen from green to their bright red color at maturity, with smooth skin and a nice, crisp texture.
While these peppers look dangerously hot, the Mad Hatter peppers are surprisingly sweet with a nice mellow heat! Expect refreshingly sweet and citrusy notes from these pods. Mad Hatter Pepper seeds will grow peppers best used in salads, pickled, and even stuffed with cheese!
