Harris Seeds Pumpkin Pepper Seed

While these are technically vegetable seeds, they are bred specifically for their ornamental value and unique pumpkin-like shape. They are not typically grown for culinary use, and their primary purpose is for decorative autumn displays.

The peppers dry naturally on the plant or after harvest. Because they dry hard and are resistant to molding, you can simply leave them in a well-ventilated area until they reach their final burnt-orange color and firm texture.

Yes, their compact size—reaching about 20 inches in height—makes them well-suited for container gardening. Ensure your pot has good drainage and receives full sun for the best results.

These seeds require warm soil to germinate effectively, ideally between 80-85°F. Using a heat mat or starting them in a warm location indoors can help you meet this requirement if your ambient garden soil isn't quite warm enough yet.

No, these seeds are sold raw and untreated. They come in their natural state without any chemical coatings or fungicide applications.

You can expect the plants to reach maturity in approximately 105 days. During this time, the fruit will transition through its color stages, starting as green, turning red, and finally bleaching to a decorative burnt orange.
