Red rocket (Capsicum annuum) is an exceptionally flavorful cayenne chili pepper that produces slender bright red peppers with both sweetness and heat. Highly prolific, this variety can be harvested throughout the growing season and enjoyed fresh or dried.
Every seed purchase supports regenerative agriculture and restoration of wild spaces.
Planted these in early spring and the slender red peppers started showing up by midsummer, just like the description promised. The sweetness really comes through before the heat kicks in, and one plant gave me more pods than I could use fresh.

Planted these in early spring and the slender red pods started showing up faster than I expected — the sweetness really comes through even when they're still green, and they dry beautifully for crushing into flakes.
