Zebrange Seeds

Name: Zebrange
Background:
The Zebrange pepper is a stunning hybrid variety created by a grower from Belgium. It is the result of a cross between the Aji Fantasy and Christmas Bell (also known as Bishop’s Crown). This pepper is admired for its ornamental value and unique appearance, with vertical stripes in red and orange, making it highly sought after by chili growers who appreciate beauty as much as flavor.
Characteristics:
Appearance: Zebrange peppers are bell-shaped with a bright orange base and red vertical stripes. Some pods may ripen fully red. The pepper has a smooth, glossy skin and stands out for its striking appearance.
Heat Level: With a mild heat level of around 5,000 to 10,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU), the Zebrange is comparable to a mild Jalapeño.
Size: The plant can grow over 5 feet tall and is highly productive, yielding bell-shaped peppers with distinct coloring.
Taste Profile: Zebrange peppers have a fruity and sweet flavor, with tropical undertones, reminiscent of Aji peppers.
Culinary Uses:
Zebrange peppers are perfect for salsas, salads, and pickling, offering both mild heat and a burst of sweetness. They can also be stuffed with cheese, meat, or other fillings, making them a versatile choice for both raw and cooked dishes.
Growing Notes:
This variety is highly productive but may require some patience for the peppers to ripen with their characteristic stripes. The tall plants may need support or staking, and they thrive in warm, sunny conditions.
Caution:
Though mild in heat, gloves are recommended for those sensitive to capsaicin when handling large quantities.
Fun Fact:
The Zebrange is as popular for its ornamental value as it is for its culinary uses, making it a favorite among gardeners who love unique pepper varieties.
