Growing Information

Growing Tabasco Hot Pepper

‘Tabasco’ is an exceptionally hot pepper prized for the distinctive flavor associated with traditional Tabasco-style sauces. Small fruits mature from yellow-green to red and bring concentrated heat to Cajun, Creole, and other spicy dishes.

Start ‘Tabasco’ indoors for transplanting. Plant seeds about ¼ inch deep, space plants 14 to 18 inches apart, and grow in full sun. This heat-tolerant variety thrives through warm summer weather.

Ready to harvest in about 80 days, pick fruits once they reach the mature size and color you prefer.

Hot and distinctive, ‘Tabasco’ is especially well suited to pepper sauces and spicy Cajun- and Creole-inspired cooking.
