Artiglio di Drago Orange Fluo powder is made by grinding this variant, born spontaneously as a mutation of the classic red Artiglio di Drago, recognizable for its fluorescent orange color.
The source pepper, Capsicum annuum, grows on a compact plant about 45 centimeters tall, very leafy, still a young and not fully genetically stabilized species.
Seeds for fruit production are started between February and March, transplanting after the last frosts in a sunny spot.
Growing requires direct sun exposure and regular watering that avoids waterlogging; it also adapts well to container growing, like the red variety it derives from.
The fleshy fruits, with the curved shape typical of the dragon's claw pepper, turn a vivid fluorescent orange at full ripeness and must be fully dried before fine grinding.
Waterlogging that favors root rot must be avoided; good drainage and airy positioning prevent the main issues.
Artiglio di Drago Orange Fluo powder has a medium-low heat level, around 25,000 SHU, with a mild, sweet taste, perfect for those who enjoy heat without excess, excellent in finishing sauces and marinades.
Rich in capsaicin in moderate amounts and in carotenoids that give it its bright color.
