Czech Black pepper

This dark purple beauty, turning to glowing red is one of the most striking edible hot peppers you can grow. It takes about 95 days for the first ones to turn and they continue to produce until stopped by freezing temperatures. The two foot, dark green plants are very prolific and the fruit is held on strong branches well off the ground. I covered mine at night with light cloth and they are still going here in mid October. Medium heat between a jalapeno and a serrano. I'll split and dry the pods to keep until I have a chance to grind them into hot pepper flakes. What a treat on eggs or pizza!
