Additional Product Details
- Extreme Heat in a Tiny Package: Tepin, or Bird Pepper, delivers serious spice with 50,000–100,000 Scovilles—up to 20 times hotter than jalapeños. Use just a pinch fresh or dried to add fiery heat to sauces and spice blends.
- Compact, Ornamental Plant with Heavy Yields: This well-branched plant reaches a manageable size, making it ideal for pots, borders, and decorative garden spaces. Its round, colorful fruit and lush foliage add visual interest year-round.
- Loved by Birds, Resisted by Pests: Birds are immune to the heat and love these peppers, making this variety a natural garden companion. The spicy fruits help deter many garden pests when grown near vegetables or roses.
- Historic Native American Wild Chili: Believed to be the ancestor of all chili peppers, Tepin offers impressive vigor and resilience. Also known as chile mosquito, pequin, or piquin, it brings cultural and botanical history to your garden.
- Long Maturity but Worth the Wait: Matures in 180–200 days from transplant. Start seeds indoors early and transplant outdoors after frost. Provide full sun and consistent moisture for best growth and flavor development.
