Pepper-Takanotsume Hawk Hot Claw- Asian Vegetable

 Capsicum annuum

50 Seeds

This pepper is known as a Hawk Claw chili because of its talon shape. It is a very hot specialty pepper from Japan. Fruits set upward growing to 1.5-2.5" long. Maturity: Approx. 60-70 days

Culture: Start seeds inside 6 weeks before last frost date (or 8 weeks before expected transplanting date). Keep soil warm until emergence. Seeds will not germinate in cool soil and planting out too early may affect plant vigor. Harden off plants carefully before transplanting. Prepare fertile, well drained soil. Transplant in late spring/summer (soil temperatures at least above 60°F) in a very warm and sunny location. Fertilize as needed
