The plump, red, fruits of this chilli variety were once the hottest to be found. They've since been surpassed by other varieties, but you can bet they have a kick.

Growing Information

How to Sow

Growing peppers is easy, so direct sowing is usually fine, but for good control over your germination conditions, sowing in trays is usually a better bet. A light covering soil is all these seeds need. Then water well and only repeat when you see the soil surface starting to dry out.

How to Harvest

As soon as your peppers look big enough to eat, you can start to harvest them. If you want red peppers, leave them on the vine until they colour up. Cut them off with a sharp pair of scissors, secateurs or a knife to avoid damage to the fruit or the plant.

Habanero Red
They have germinated but are struggling to grow. They have the second leaf on them but are much smaller and looking less healthier than the capsicum and jalopinos.
