Notes
Thai hot pepper (Capsicum annuum 'Hot Thai') is a vegetable for the food garden, border, and accent planting. It is typically grown as an annual. It cannot take cold, and a freeze will end its season. Give it full sun, average moisture, and sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It blooms from early to late summer, and birds visit it. Deer tend to pass it by.
Pairs well with Sweet corn, Pumpkin, and Tarragon.
