About this pepper

The Adele is a Capsicum annuum hybrid developed in the United States by breeder Ryan Parson. It originated from a cross between the Fish Pepper and the Jigsaw ornamental pepper, followed by backcrossing in both directions.

This cultivar is noted for its highly variegated foliage, displaying contrasting black and fluorescent patterning. Plants are moderate in size, larger than typical dwarf ornamental peppers. The fruits deliver a medium heat level of approximately 10,000 Scoville Heat Units.
