Tabasco pepper plants are super prolific, and very ornamental. Plant them in a patio pot for a fun conversation piece. They are also really easy to harvest, because when they turn ripe red and are fully mature, a gentle tug will release them from the stem - no pruners required! The stems stay on the plant too, making it super easy to dry Tabasco peppers or use them in any recipes like this amazing salsa recipe!
