The chili peppers are not very tolerant to low temperatures, and most of them demand a minimum of around 32ºF, and slow down growth below around 55ºF. However, some varieties are somehow more likely to survive a cold night, such as:

- A variety of Rocoto Peppers, which is a subspecies of Capsicum pubescens, can germinate reliably at 50 ºF and it is the only chili species reported to tolerate light frost.

- The Hardy Chili Pepper, reported to grow down to 15 ºF.

- The Bulgarian carrot, slightly less tolerant than the previous ones, but more popular. It is also known as “Shipkas".
