Overview
Yellow Cayenne is a Burpee hybrid from 1997 of the pungent goat's horn type. The pods are long and thin, about 8 inches (200 mm) by 3/4 inch (20 mm), yellowish green to start, then a rosy yellow and gold-orange, and finally dark red if left to ripen fully. Plants grow around 28 inches (700 mm) tall. First yellow pods come at about 60 days from transplant, with red ones near 70. The long thin pods dry easily, and the yellow stage gives a bright color for pickles and fresh salsa.
