Aji Yellow is a classic Peruvian Capsicum chinense prized across South America for its bright heat and distinctive tropical flavor. Compact 2-inch pods ripen from light green through yellow to a vivid golden yellow on productive plants with white flowers. Very hot and versatile — a staple of Peruvian and Latin American cooking. 10 seeds per pack.
