Mad Hatter Hybrid Pepper
Growing Mad Hatter Hybrid Pepper
‘Mad Hatter’ is an award-winning hybrid pepper and 2017 All-America Selections Winner prized for its unusual shape and sweet citrus-floral flavor. Disc-shaped, three-sided fruits develop a crisp, crunchy texture and mature from green to red, with occasional mild heat near the seed cavity.
Start ‘Mad Hatter’ indoors for transplanting. Plant seeds about ¼ inch deep, space plants 12 to 18 inches apart, and grow in full sun. This heat-tolerant variety thrives during warm summer weather.
Ready to harvest in about 87 days, enjoy the peppers green or allow them to mature red as their flavor intensifies.
Sweet, crisp, and unusual, ‘Mad Hatter’ is excellent for fresh eating, salads, pickling, and snacking.
