Overall Taste Yield Ease	Larue, Kentucky, United States Frost Free Season: 183 - 203 days Soil Texture: Clay Garden Size: Medium - 400 square feet to 1,600 square feet Sun Exposure: More than 8 hours per day
Grew these in amended clay soil during a disgustingly hot summer & they performed really well. The flavor/heat changes quite a bit as the fruit matures. Held up well in the canned salsa and has a really snappy taste when used in table (fresh) salsa. Sturdy upright plants 18-24" high yielding about 2 dozen peppers per plant. Definitely worth a try!
