Grow Your Own Fiery Datil Pepper Seeds

Ignite your garden with Datil Pepper Seeds, the blazing hot, flavor-packed peppers that are a staple in Saint Augustine, Florida. These little fireballs ripen to a vibrant orange-yellow and deliver a vicious heat level of 100,000-300,000 Scoville units, balanced by a surprisingly sweet and fruity flavor. Perfect for hot sauces, jellies, and mustards, these peppers are a must-have for heat seekers and culinary adventurers alike.

Why Choose Datil Pepper Seeds?

Exceptional Heat & Flavor: Unlike other super-hot peppers, Datil peppers offer a complex, sweet, and fruity taste that makes them a favorite in Minorcan recipes and local St. Augustine cuisine.

Heirloom & Open-Pollinated: These non-GMO, heirloom seeds ensure you’re growing authentic, high-quality peppers just like the ones celebrated at the annual Datil Pepper Festival.

High-Yield Plants: Each plant grows up to 30" tall, producing an abundance of 3-1/2" peppers perfect for harvesting at their peak yellow ripeness.

How to Grow Datil Peppers

Start your Datil Pepper Seeds indoors 8 weeks before the last frost. Plant them 1/4" deep in sterile soil, maintain 85°F bottom heat, and keep them moist under bright light. Seeds typically germinate in 7-21 days. Once seedlings develop 6 true leaves, transplant them 30" apart in rich soil or large 5-gallon containers.
