Description

Plant Characteristics: The Trinidad Scorpion is an annual vegetable plant that typically grows to about 4 feet tall when fully matured, but our 14 cm version is perfect for those looking to start small or grow in limited spaces. The plant features vibrant green leaves and produces small, oblong peppers that transition from green to a striking red as they ripen. Each pepper boasts a crisp texture and an exceptionally fiery taste, making them a favorite among hot sauce makers and those who enjoy adding heat to their dishes.

Growing Conditions: This pepper thrives in full sunlight and prefers well-drained soil with a pH range of 6.0 to 6.8. It requires consistent watering—about an inch per week—especially during fruit development. While it can tolerate some urban pollution, it does not fare well in standing water; thus, ensure proper drainage when planting.
