(pictured) Certified Organic! Czech Black peppers! Stunning glossy black ripening red, and medium hot. About as hot as jalapeños ...great for stuffing or stir-fry. Even Czech BLACK peppers are brilliant red when they are truly ripe!

Certified Organic! Spitfire Korean hot peppers ...selection in progress! Spitfire WAS a Korean hybrid, with moderate heat. We are working on "unwinding" the hybrid to select the peppers most like the original, year after year, until the seed is stable. These are the delightful "failures" from our selections this year! Enjoy as you would any other tasty hot pepper! Thanks for participating in the experiment!
