15,000-30,000 SHU. From Peru, The Lemon Drop is a spicy and tangy seasoning pepper with a fruity lemony flavor and aroma. Fruits grow up to 2” long and dry well. This variety is an extremely rare find outside of South America. Its origin makes it heat tolerant giving it the ability to produce high numbers of fruit throughout the heat of summer!
Grew these for the first time last year. These have a great crisp flavor with a hint of citrus. My favorite part was there were very few seeds. These made a great hot sauce and the color is just gorgeous. Will be growing these every year.
These grew really well, but I did not start harvesting until October in Maryland 7A. I got a huge harvest. They have a great citrus/passion fruit/pineapple taste to them which made them amazing in salsa. They also are VERY hot (or my plant was) more along the lines of a mild habanero. They freeze and dry well. Start early as they take longer to mature than jalapeños, etc.
We grew only one of these and it produced literally hundreds of peppers. They were super hot but very good. We use these in venison sausage (hot) and spicy dishes. They dry up nice if you want to keep them for future torment on your taste buds LOL
Good germination rate and heavy fruit set once summer heat arrived. Looking forward to making hot sauce!
I’ve grown lemon drop before and they are productive plants and sweet with a kick. Will continue to grow them next year.

I wasn't sure it would survive when I planted it, but it is growing. Very happy with my purchase
I immediately set this plant outside to begin hardening off. After about 2 weeks, I planted it in it's dedicated grow bag until I get a more permanent planter, and I must say it is living life. It has grown so much since I received it. I believe I'm going to remove the blossoms this year to continue promoting healthy growth.
Love this. I collect stickers on my garden notebook for fun and inspiration and this spoke to me.
Very good seed potatoes, growing well
Plants arrived in great condition. One plant did not take and ended up dying. We ordered 10 bare root plants, but actually got 1 extra so even after one failed, we still ended up with 10 great looking plants.
