Grow Your Own Fiery Malagueta Pepper Seeds

Spice up your garden and your meals with Malagueta Pepper Seeds, the vibrant and intensely hot chili pepper that's a staple in Brazilian cuisine. Known for its unique flavor and fiery kick, this heirloom variety is perfect for pepper enthusiasts and lovers of bold, spicy foods.

Why Choose Malagueta Pepper Seeds?

These open-pollinated, GMO-free seeds produce small, tapered peppers that grow up to 2 in. long on lush, shrubby plants. Starting green and maturing to a deep red, Malagueta peppers pack a serious punch with a Scoville heat rating of 60,000-100,000. Their distinct taste sets them apart from other chili peppers, making them a favorite for hot sauces, vinegar brines, and condiments.

Easy to Grow & Highly Productive

Each packet contains 10 seeds, ready for you to start indoors 8 weeks before the last frost. With proper care, using sterile media, 85°F bottom heat, and bright light, your Malagueta Pepper Seeds will germinate in 7-14 days. Transplant seedlings once they develop 6 true leaves, spacing them 30 in. apart in rich soil or patio containers. In just 100 days, you'll be harvesting vibrant red peppers bursting with flavor.
