Description
Capsicum Pubescens is the least common and least cultivated of the Capsicum varieties worldwide. From the genus “Capsicum Pubescens”, literally translated “Pubescens” means “hairy”, these plants are quite easily identified by their characteristic black seeds and hairy leaves. Another distinctive feature of this species is the violet-blue color of the flower petals. Most often, these flowers grow singly or in pairs, but in rare cases they may grow in groups of four. As the fruits ripen, they turn red and usually reach the size of a large olive. This juicy, fleshy pepper is more like a tomato than a bell pepper, and will give you a surprisingly warm feeling, which is why Rocoto is an essential ingredient in Peruvian and Bolivian cuisine! 10 seeds per bag.
