Purple Jalapeno 1 Litre Pot Plant

Grown using 100% renewable energy!

Purple Jalapeno turns dark purple and stays that way for a long time before finally ripening to an oxblood red. The fruits are about the same size as regular Jalapeno, with the same thick walls and fiery heat. Great for use in salsas and very attractive pickled with a mixture of other jalapeno colours.

Heat level: 6,000 to 8,000 SHUs. Learn about Scoville Heat Units (SHUs) here.

Harvest: Starts fruiting about 120 days from potting on as seedlings and under good growing conditions. Pick when the fruits have reached their maximum size. Fruits ripen from green to red.

Size: Plants can grow quite tall about 1m and will require support.
