Hot Pepper Seeds Fish Yellow (Capsicum annuum)
Overview:
The Fish Yellow pepper is a rare and visually striking heirloom variety with origins in the African American communities of the Chesapeake Bay region in the United States. Known for its unique variegated leaves and vibrantly patterned yellow fruits, this pepper is a treasured culinary and ornamental plant. Historically, it has been used in Creole and seafood dishes, making it a staple in spicy regional cuisine.
Plant Characteristics:
The Fish Yellow pepper plant grows to an average height of 60-90 cm (24-36 inches) and features beautifully mottled green and white foliage. The fruits, which start as cream-colored and mature to a bright yellow, are slender and tapered, measuring approximately 5-7 cm (2-3 inches) in length. The peppers have a moderate heat level of 5,000-30,000 Scoville units, making them versatile for a variety of dishes. This plant is highly productive and thrives in warm, sunny conditions, adding an ornamental touch to gardens.
Flavor and Benefits:
Fish Yellow peppers are mildly hot with a tangy, slightly fruity flavor that complements seafood, soups, and sauces. Their vibrant yellow hue also makes them an excellent garnish. Rich in vitamins A and C, they offer antioxidant benefits, boosting immunity and promoting overall health.
Cultivation Tips:
• Sowing: Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date. Plant seeds 0.5 cm (1/4 inch) deep in well-draining seed-starting mix.
• Transplanting: Transfer seedlings to a sunny location once the risk of frost has passed. Maintain a spacing of 30-45 cm (12-18 inches) between plants.
• Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged.
• Fertilization: Use a balanced fertilizer throughout the growing season to ensure robust growth and fruiting.
• Harvesting: Peppers mature in 75-85 days and can be harvested at any stage, though their flavor is sweetest when fully yellow.
Uses:
Fish Yellow peppers are perfect for enhancing the flavor of seafood dishes, pickling, or adding a mild heat to soups and stews. Their ornamental foliage and colorful fruits also make them a stunning addition to edible landscaping or container gardens.

Each packet includes 5 fresh, high-quality seeds, carefully selected and tested for optimal germination.
