(Capsicum annuum) A popular variety for drying, Cascabel is a small, mildly spicy pepper averaging 1-2 inches in diameter. The smooth-skinned peppers hold their shape during the drying process creating round bells or rattles when dry. In fact, the literal translation of the word "Cascabel" is "bell" or "rattle". Sturdy 24-30" plants produce amazing yields of round peppers that are initially green, turning red and finally mahogany when fully mature. Peppers are traditionally dried but may be eaten fresh. Mild to medium heat level.

Minimum 15 seeds per package.

The fruit is about 3 inches—almost the size of a peach—with a yellow rind and fruity-tasting white flesh. They start out green and then turn yellow as they ripen.

You can spot a perfectly ripe melon in the same way you would a mango. It should feel heavier than it looks and have a slightly sweet aroma. Press gently on the end furthest from the stem—this should be slightly soft. Most of mine pulled away from the vine very easily.
