Pepper Seeds, Hot - Matchbox

(Capsicum annuum) 75 days.

Matchbox is a very adaptable pepper! Rich soil, poor soil, drought, dampness; this pepper can not only handle it all but thrive! Matchbox weighs in around 30,000-50,000 Scovilles.

This is the shining star outcome of a breeding project taken on by Roberta Bailey, over at Fedco Seeds, Maine. Matchbox is a perfect example of how, through selection, we can reclaim hybrid varieties and bring them back into the accessible realm of open pollinated seed production!
