Description
Description
The Red Cayenne Pepper will put a hop, a skip, and a kick in your step. Slender, glossy 5"-6" fruits grow abundantly on strong plants, bounding through all the primary colors as it matures from green to yellow to orange to red. Primarily used as a dried spice, but can be used fresh to rev up a salsa or to make pickling brine howl.
If you want to spice it up with a different color, try the beautiful Purple Cayenne Pepper.

Has yet to sprout. Renown after 12 days.
Wonderful Packaging - Quick Delivery! Will use again in the future!
I am just now starting the seeds. Nice note though :)
The germination rate was pretty good, and it is so easy to grow. I harvested way more Cayenne peppers than I expected, and I was able to give away some to my friends. I highly recommend their seeds.
I received the seeds that I ordered. Fast and precise service.
Everything was perfect and with a little extra gift.
My order came in very fast, eveyting I ordered was there. The company followed up with an email asking if everything was ok with the order and links to some sites that help with questions on planting and growing. I'm very impressed with them and will use them again.
Quickly shipped and arrived without a problem. Thanks!
Thanks for the quick service! Seeds seem to be sprouting just fine, they arrived early and were neatly packaged. I only wish they listed the growing/sprouting instructions on the package like they do in another place I order from :) Gave 5 stars anyway because of the great price :3
Great quality seeds, easy web site for ordering and awesome customer service!
