Rocoto, Riesen Yellow

Description

A truly giant Rocoto variety — these are some of the largest pods in the Rocoto world. Mature fruits can grow to bell‑pepper scale, with individual pods easily tipping the scales at 100‑200+ grams when conditions are optimal.

Despite their generous size, the plants are surprisingly prolific, producing heavy yields season after season.

This variety carries a medium heat level — enough to satisfy spicy food lovers, but mild enough to allow the flavor, thick juicy flesh, and aroma to shine through. Think stuffing, roasting, grilling, sauces — it’s versatile.

As a typical Rocoto (Capsicum pubescens), it inherits the species’ signature traits: deep sweetness under the heat, thick walls, black seeds, purple flowers, and good tolerance for cooler nights.

Highly recommended for Rocoto enthusiasts — especially those wanting maximum size without extreme heat.

⚠️ Very limited supply!
