Grey captions say what stands behind that particular figure. Breeding, growth habit and fruit characters carry no caption because they rest on the record's sources as a whole rather than citing their own; closing that gap is ordinary outstanding work, not a finished job.

Origin & history

An All-America Selections winner bred as an easy cayenne for gardeners: compact, tolerant of cool and hot weather alike, and productive without support.

Against the rest of the pepper database

Where this variety sits among every pepper we hold a comparable figure for. Position is not merit: earlier is not better than later, and hotter is not better than milder. Only cultivar-level figures are compared, never trial results, and maturity is only ranked against figures counted the same way.

Days to maturity 60-75 days · ranked at its midpoint, 67.5

earlier than 94% of the 252 peppers we hold a figure for. None of these figures state whether they are counted from sowing or from transplant, so they are ranked against each other on the assumption that suppliers use one convention, which is not something any of them says.

hotter than 72% of the 249 peppers we hold a figure for.
