Datil Pepper (1 Plant)

A wildly popular pepper from St. Augustine, Florida. Plants boast vivid orange-yellow fruits about 3.5in long. Heat is comparable to a habanero, coming in at 100,000-300,000 Scoville units, however the datil is known for having, sweeter, more fruity notes than the habanero. Harvest: 100-150 Days Sun: Full Sun Pairs Well With: Eggplants – Peppers and eggplants demand similar growing conditions making them quite a strong pairing Beans, peas - Peppers are heavy feeders and pairing with legume varieties that enrich the soil will do them well Lettuce, salad mix – These low-to-the-ground varieties both maximize garden space and are light feeders, complimenting both pepper’s size and tendency to pull a lot of nutrients from the soil Marigolds – a repellent for some of the pests that bother peppers
