Description

'Mushroom Red' is originally from the USA. The plants have relatively small, elongated and light green leaves. They grow very branched, but still have a rather slender habit. The fruits have thin walls and are approx. 4 x 4 cm in size. They have a mushroom-like shape, hence the name. The pods ripen from green to red, develop a pronounced pungency and are suitable for drying, making sauces and salsas and also for stuffing.

Non hybrid

Not frost resistant
