No germination. all seeds were duds.
Hi! Sorry to hear you had a poor experience with our seeds.
Sandia Seed makes every effort possible to ensure your success.
Here are our tips for success:
1. Seedling mix, never peat moss, cover seed 1/4”.
2. Moist at all times, can’t dry out once, seed will die.
3. Warm at all times, if they get cold the clock starts over.
4. Patience, don't compare peppers to any other vegetable germination times.
Pepper seeds only germinate when it is warm, because they want to complete their life-cycle and produce fruit. There is no reason for them to start growing when it is cold or dry. Each pepper variety takes a different amount of time to germinate. It can be 7 days or it can be over 45 days. More info at sandiaseed.com/pages/grow.
If, you have followed our instructions, and still do not get your seeds to germinate, please contact sales@sandiaseed.com with your order info and the seeds you had trouble with. We will go over your germination procedure and find a solution for you. And we can offer replacement seeds or a seed refund.
These are definitely ornamental, they add a nice touch of color to your garden.. and they are spicy too!
This will be the second year planting Easter Ornamental peppers. Last year, I experimented with this varietal and they were the eye-catching centerpiece of my garden! Not only are they beautiful to look at, the little pepper plants are amazingly prolific, producing hundreds of edible peppers. I harvested them when they matured to a deep orange shade and dehydrated most of them. I also candied a batch in a simple syrup blend for a sweet treat that packs a punch!
I have never seen prettier peppers. Great in pretty pots.
These were by far the prettiest peppers I've grown. We had them in pots and they were jus beautiful. At the end of the season there were a ton of them, they had all ripened to an orange-red, so we used them to make your fermented hot sauce recipe in our crock and it turned out great!
These are surprisingly beautiful - and are quite striking in my tall ceramic pot in my garden. Very bushy, but not huge plants, they are gorgeous. I've tried a couple of the bright orange ripe ones, they have a bit of heat but not a dealbreaker. I think I'll use them for hot pepper flakes at the end of this season, they're still going strong in brilliant orange right now (Oct 1st in Colorado).
These are definitely the prettiest peppers I've grown! The color transformation is amazing, the peppers really do look like they are glowing, especially at twilight. They don't seem to be too spicy, but maybe I overwatered them and washed out the heat. But I'll chop them and add them to salads or salsa for extra color and a bit of heat. I want to grow these Easter ornamental peppers every year, they are stunning in tall pots.
Wow, these are absolutely stunning. I planted several in tall ceramic pots and they were the centerpiece of my garden beds. The colors are so beautiful in pastels, they almost look like they glow! And, I used them all at the end of the season by drying them and crushing for flakes. They are also a great addition to salsa recipes, very hot. I will grow these every year from here on out, they're my new favorite pepper plant!
They start out all purple and there are tons of peppers on the plant, all pointed upward. Quite ornamental. I will grow these every year in my edible garden, they make quite an accent.
These are the prettiest ornamental peppers, my plants were super busy and packed with peppers in pastels. We thought they were great added to salsa, nice and spicy!
