Interesting Facts:
 
The Spicy Jane pepper is particularly popular among home gardeners due to its relatively compact size, making it suitable for container gardening.
The pepper’s high yield and ornamental appearance, with its vibrant red fruits standing out against the dark green foliage, make it a favorite for both culinary and decorative purposes.
The peppers can be harvested at different stages of maturity depending on the desired flavor and heat level, with the heat intensifying as the fruit ripens to red.
This pepper is an excellent choice for those who enjoy spicy food but prefer a pepper with a nuanced flavor profile rather than just pure heat.
