Cayenne Long Slim Pepper is a compact fast growing annual that is ready to harvest in 80-90 days. The long and thin twisting hot peppers have shiny red skin and are moderately hot when ripe. Best if grown in full sun and rich, moist, acidic well-drained soils. Good disease resistance and heat tolerant. Can be used for drying, pickling, or eaten fresh.
In addition to spicing up a meal, cayenne is known to increase digestion and circulation. Colorful cayenne may act as an anti-inflammatory and have a high antioxidant content. *
