Pepper, Hot - Habanero Mayan Red

90 days to maturity from transplant. Capsicum chinense.

This elongated red habanero pepper has the same fruitiness and hot combination coveted by habanero lovers. The fruit are very attractive and tasty. Typically this type of hat pepper is used as a seasoning pepper since the scoville units are slightly lower than their red habanero cousins. Plants are up to 36 inches tall and sturdy red pendant fruits are covered well from sunburn. The name gives away the origin (central Mexico) of the pepper selection.
