About This
- ️ Classic Heirloom Variety: Tabasco Red Hot Chili Pepper Seeds produce small, upright peppers known for their vibrant color and bold, tangy heat. This heirloom variety is the same type used to make the world-famous Tabasco sauce, delivering fiery flavor that’s both sharp and juicy. Each plant produces an abundance of slender, 1–2 inch peppers that ripen from green to bright red, adding striking visual appeal to any garden.
- Easy to Grow & Heat-Loving: Thrives in full sun and fertile, well-drained soil with consistent moisture. Start seeds indoors 8–10 weeks before the last frost, then transplant outdoors once temperatures stay above 70°F. Compact, upright plants grow 2–4 feet tall and perform beautifully in garden beds, raised planters, or large containers.
- Versatile Culinary Use: Perfect for making hot sauces, salsas, and chili oils, or for drying and grinding into pepper flakes. Tabasco peppers offer a fruity yet intense heat, ranging from 30,000–50,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU), making them a flavorful addition to any spicy dish or seasoning blend.
- Continuous Harvests: Matures in about 80–90 days from transplant, producing an ongoing flush of peppers throughout summer and early fall. Harvest when red for peak flavor and color—plants will continue to yield as long as warm temperatures persist.
- Hardiness Zones: Suitable for USDA Hardiness Zones 4–12. Performs best in warm, sunny climates and can be overwintered indoors in cooler regions for extended production.
