Before you toss this cute little Red Cherry Pepper into your mouth, remember that it’s affectionately called a cherry bomb. Vigorous plants ignite a barrage of firm fruits that ripen from dark green to bright red. Plump and smooth, crunchy and spicy, with a slightly sweet flavor. Makes a dynamite jelly, or charge them up with cream cheese for a big platter of poppers. 

The Red Cherry Sweet Pepper is just as cute and little, with no heat or bomb jargon.

• High yields
• Small, round, and spicy
