Overview
Variegated is an ornamental hot pepper grown as much for its bushy form as for its fruit. Plants branch freely to 16 to 20 inches tall and 12 to 16 inches wide, and bear inch-long, tapered, slightly curled purple pods held straight up that finish red. The fruit is hot, so it can season a dish as well as decorate a pot.
