Pepper Cayennetta F1 Hybrid

10 years ago

Bought one Cayennetta Pepper plant, never heard of, supposed to be a mild Cayenne. 2012 AAS winner. So I looked it up online, and it is supposed to be very mild. The advertising blurbs claim it has the flavor of a Cayenne without the heat, whatever that means. Supposed to grow in cooler climes, was bred in England which can barely grow peppers at all.
What would you do with a Cayenne pepper without being spicy? How would it taste? Sounds more ornamental than food.

Anybody try?

Mild is the key for Cayennetta. If you like fresh raw pepper with just a hint of heat ( like a hot radish) this one is for you. very compact bushy plant suitable for containers and attractive as as an ornamental. In the 500 scu class
