Habanero - Red

Heat: Very Hot (250,000 SHU)

100 Days. A classic Capsicum chinense producing vibrant red pods 4–6 cm long with bold, intense heat and a fruity, slightly sweet character. Highly productive and a staple for salsas, hot sauces, and adding serious heat to any dish — the red habanero delivers reliable, fierce heat alongside the tropical fruity depth the chinense family is known for.

Plants reach 60–80 cm and perform well in pots or garden beds in full sun with fertile, well-drained soil.

Harvest: Pick when pods are fully red for peak flavour and heat.
Flavour: Fruity, slightly sweet with bold, intense, fiery heat.
