Biquinho (bee-KEE-nyo) means \"little beak\" in Portuguese; it is also known as button, piquillo, or chupetinha pepper. Green peppers ripen to red (red -colored seeds) or yellow (natural-colored seeds) and are traditionally pickled and served as appetizers or a drink garnish. A unique pepper that all can enjoy. 1,000–2,000 Scoville heat units (mild).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDays to Maturity:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e72 Days from transplanting\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFamily:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eSolanaceae\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eType:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eUnder 5000 Scoville Units, Chile Pepper\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNative:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eBrazil\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHardiness:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eFrost-sensitive perennial grown as an annual\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eExposure:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eFull sun\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePlant Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e15\"–24\" tall and wide\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVariety Info:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e¾\"–1¼\" fruit start out green and ripen to either red or golden yellow, rounded but tapering off to a point.
