About the Mad Hatter Pepper

The Mad Hatter is a Capsicum baccatum variety known for its distinctive hat-shaped pods and mild, sweet flavor. Plants are vigorous and easy to grow, often reaching up to 4 feet tall, and produce abundant 2–3 inch long peppers with smooth, bright red skin.

These peppers mature early and are especially popular for fresh use and stuffing, thanks to their thick walls and lack of heat.
