The iconic Peter Pepper was given its name for its...well...unique shape. This novelty pepper has lived in infamy for quite some time. It's primarily grown for ornamental purposes rather than culinary use, although it still has great flavor and can be used in cooking like other chili peppers. Peter Pepper plants will shoot up to 3 ft. tall and produce loads of these 4-6" long average-sized peppers. As the name implies, this pepper is shaped very realistically - so much so that it was judged as the "most pornographic pepper" by the Organic Gardening Magazine. This heirloom chili is absolutely the novelty of your garden. Besides being a real conversation piece, the Peter Pepper has a thick fleshy pod that has a medium heat level with Scoville Heat Units ranging from 10,000-23,000. The taste is similar to a Jalapeno but with a slight sweet flavor. Add this to your dishes for a spicy kick! Try growing other Rare & Exotic Pepper Seeds in your garden for more unique peppers!
