Description: 25 Ornamental Pepper Seeds for Purple Pixie pepper - Freshly harvested July 2022 - open-pollinated grown without herbicides and pesticides. Nice ornamental pepper, with small, deep purple and green leaves and light purple tiny pepper pods throughout the plant. Plants grow to around 15" high with nice bush shape which does not require staking or support. Pepper pods ripen from light purple to bright red in late summer. Pepper pods are among the earliest to form of all peppers. Makes a nice accent plant with dark/purple leaves in planters - see 3rd picture with dwarf marigolds. Grows especially well in containers. I've been growing for the past 3 years, no issues with diseases or pests. Plants starts to flower and set pods early, so you can have purple pods growing for many weeks. Pods are edible, spice level is a bit more spicy than jalapenos. Germination rate 80% at 80 F in 7-14 days. Shipped via first-class mail. US buyers only. Tips: store seeds in a cool, dry place, like a sealed container in your refrigerator, seeds can stay viable for several years to maximize germination - use the "paper towel" method using a damp paper towel in a sealed bag or container. Plant seed in soil when roots sprout, you can find videos on YouTube with step by step instructions.Start seeds indoors 4-6 before last frost, then move plants outside once nighttime temperatures remain above 50 degrees F.
