Fish Pepper

Although the exact origins of the fish pepper are unknown, it is widely believed that it came from somewhere in the Caribbean, arriving in the United States in the late 1800s. It is an heirloom variety developed and preserved by African American communities in the Chesapeake. The plant has variegated foliage and its peppers ripen from white with green streaks to a dark red color

Fish peppers are typically hot peppers, and their heat can range from 5,000 to 30,000 on the Scoville scale. The peppers grow to roughly 4 to 5cm in length, with the plant itself growing to roughly 60cm in height.
