Orange Scotch Bonnet Pepper
10 Seeds
An essential ingredient in making Jamaican Jerk seasoning, the scotch bonnet is a popular pepper throughout the Carribean. Thirty-inch-tall plants produce huge (we'd almost say burdensome) yields of 1.5-inch-wide vibrantly colored peppers. You'll be eating them fresh, pickling, drying, and giving them away. The delicious orange fruit have a heat level similar to a habanero, but with a sweeter, citrusy flavor. Take care to protect hands when handling fruit or seeds. They are very, very hot. Harvests begin approximately 90 days from transplant. Each packet contains a minimum of 10 seeds.
IMPORTANT: Super hot chilis can be challenging to grow as they have a long germination period (21-28 days) and require long, hot growing seasons. See our article on starting peppers indoors and ensure that you have enough warm, frost-free days to allow for maturity and a sufficient harvest period.
