Habanero Pepper 'Original Red'

Moderately productive, crumpled looking red fruit,with a very hot taste. Plant was vigorous with a wide and low growing habit.

I love to grow and eat peppers and this is one of my favorites - a little hotter than most orange fruited ones, it has been very product...Read Moreive through a wide variety of temperatures and conditions. It will set fruit even when the temperature exceeds 120 F and down to about 40 F

I find the flavor of this one to be the best [my favorite] - the Caribbean Red is hotter but the flavor is not any better. To get really hot peppers, I let the plant set a few fruit and then only water it when it starts to wilt. The ones grown in full sun seem to be hotter than ones grown in the shade

I grow them organically with manure, etc. for the best flavor.
