Bishop Crown Seeds

I almost ordered these seeds from an Amazon retailer, but then saw a bunch of bad reviews about delivery time. These were a little bit more expensive, but worth the extra buck to be confident I would get what I ordered in a timely manner. Seeds sprouted quickly and excited to add this to my collection.

Great shape and spice level in this pepper. Conversation piece.

Just eating harvested some bishop pepper, start to eat some as I was about to make hot sauce and noticed the didn’t have any head. Might have gotten mad hatter instead.

I bought these seeds because it looked weird and was spicy. Germination rate was amazing! I used them in both fermented pepper sauce and a southern vinegar pepper sauce. They are warm! The plants were slow to grow, but they grew and grew...and then grew some more. Once they hit a certain point, they started to flower. All over. These plants were between 4-5 foot tall and had about a 3.5-4 foot spread. There were so many peppers I couldn’t keep up, and had friends come get some several times. They made, and made...and made. I probably still have some hanging on the plant in the greenhouse and next week is Christmas! 10/10 - don’t start all the seeds unless you have space for the plants haha.

I think these look like little UFOs. I give away lots of my harvest to friends and these always are conversation starters, everyone wants to know what they are! They are spicy but not too spicy, so I like to use them in salsa.
