It offers all the fragrance and fruity complexity of a habanero without the intense heat, making it a versatile ingredient for dishes like sofrito, stews, and salsas. These colorful peppers ripen from green to shades of red, orange, and yellow, adding both flavor and beauty to any garden. Originating from seeds provided by Fruition Seeds, these plants have been grown organically and allowed to self-pollinate, ensuring high-quality seeds with excellent germination rates. With a growing period of 90-100 days, Aji Dulce thrives in warm climates, whether in containers or garden beds, and brings a vibrant Caribbean touch to any meal. When to Sow & Plant Aji Dulce loves heat, so start seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost date, maintaining soil temperatures between 75-85°F using a heat mat. Place seedlings under grow lights or in a sunny spot for 14-16 hours a day to encourage healthy growth. Once temperatures stay above 65°F, transplant seedlings outdoors, spacing them 18-24 inches apart in full sun. Aji Dulce performs beautifully in containers and raised beds, producing an abundant harvest of aromatic peppers in 90-100 days.
