Habanero Orange Pepper in a 3.25" pot
Scorching hot fruit is lantern-shaped and about 2.5 cm x 3.75 cm with thin wrinkled flesh that turns from light green to orange when ripe. Germination of the seed is slow with warm conditions (26 C/80 F) essential for best results. As seeds can also carry the essential heat of the pepper, to avoid transferring capsaicin (the active component responsible for the heat sensation) to sensitive parts of your body, we advise washing your hands after handling both seeds and fruit.
