The peppers are popular in the Caribbean, and it’s even called the Puerto Rico pepper because of how often they’re used there. The Rocotillo peppers appear to be varieties of both Capsicum Baccatum and Capsicum Chinense, but their origins differ! The Baccatum variety is from Peru, but it’s uncertain where the Chinense variety originated. To make it more confusing, it’s said the Baccatum originated in Peru but was discovered in Puerto Rico years later. Although its origin and history are confusing, we do know these peppers are tasty!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-contrast=\"none\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRocotillo pepper plants grow up to 3 ft. long and produce high yields of these tiny, 1\" long pepper pods.
