Ornamental Pepper (Prairie Fire - Capsicum annuum) produces edible upright conical fruits maturing yellow to orange to red at full maturity. The very small fruit, constantly changing colors, make this a must have ornamental plant. ½" x 1" fruits stand out above foliage, changing from yellow to orange and finally red with some purple streaking in cool weather. They are also known as “Christmas Peppers”.
Ornamental peppers like to be kept warm. They take well to being grown indoors, as long as they are kept in a patch of sun and the soil is kept moist, though not waterlogged. Also excellent as a bedding plant and border plant. To shape the pepper, gardeners can pinch new growth, encouraging the pepper to branch out and become bushy. For people who like the flowers of the ornamental pepper, the fruits can be removed as soon as they emerge or shortly thereafter, which will encourage the plant to keep flowering.
