The Medusa Ornamental pepper is a unique and eye-catching variety of Capsicum annuum. Known for its small, multi-colored fruits that resemble serpents, this pepper is both ornamental and functional. The vibrant colors range from creamy yellow to orange and fiery red.
Unlike many other hot peppers, the Medusa pepper has a surprisingly mild heat level, making it perfect for various culinary applications. It adds a pop of color and a hint of spice to salads, salsas, and garnishes without overpowering other flavors.
Medusa peppers are relatively easy to grow and thrive well in containers, making them ideal for urban gardening. They require full sunlight and regular watering but are generally resistant to pests and diseases. With their compact size and colorful appearance, they are also a great choice for decorative gardening.
