Plants are compact, bushy, and highly productive, setting clusters of elongated peppers that ripen from green to vivid orange. The fruits typically reach 3–4 inches long and are prized for their fruity aroma and sharp heat. Datil peppers have been grown for generations in St. Augustine, Florida, where they remain a regional favorite for sauces, salsas, and cooking.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eOrigination:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003e Believed to have originated in the Caribbean; long‑established heirloom of St. Augustine, Florida\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eHistoric Uses:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003e Culinary, Sauces, Fresh Eating, Pickling\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eHeight:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003e 24–36 inches\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eHardiness:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003e Annual in all zones; perennial in Zones 10+\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eFlower Color:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003e White\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eMaturity:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003e Typically 90–100 days from transplant; heavy producer once established\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eOther Names:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003e St. Augustine Datil, Florida Datil Pepper\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eGrowing Conditions:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003eGrow in full sun with warm temperatures.

You will receive a plant similar to the ones pictured, though size and fullness may vary. Please understand that shipped plants have bumpy rides. A few broken leaves or small stems are normal during shipping and are not considered damage. Broken stems can be rooted once the cut end dries to start new growth. Plants may arrive semi‑dormant, and in winter they may naturally drop a few leaves. If your plant arrives rotting or dead, we will replace it. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003ePlease contact us with photo proof within 24 hours of delivery.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003e After 24 hours, plant care becomes the buyer’s responsibility, though we’re always happy to answer questions and help you succeed.
