Pleasantly surprised

These peppers get large and are quite beautiful. Best luck I've had with peppers in all my years growing. Highly recommend

Must try King Arthur peppers!

I grew these a few years ago from another supplier and they were the tastiest peppers I ever had. They were hard to find during the pandemic. When I saw them on GrowJoy I ordered ten plants and they arrived in perfect condition, carefully packed. They are enjoying their new home in my raised beds and I can’t wait until they begin producing! Must try these!
