Non-GMO, Heirloom Hot Orange Habanero Pepper Seeds from True Leaf Market produce one of the hottest peppers available with Scoville units between 100,000 and 350,000, and they should be handled with care. The small, orange, lantern-shaped habanero peppers feature thin walls and a wrinkled, waxy surface. Hailing from the Amazon region of South America, the habanero pepper is a common ingredient in hot Mexican sauces and salsas. Habanero pepper plants prefer moist, slightly acidic soil, warm weather, and lots of sun. In most USDA hardiness zones, orange habanero seeds can be grown as an annual during the frost-free growing season. These heirloom hot orange habanero pepper seeds are produced by Mountain Valley Seed Company, a small family-owned and independently operated seed company that offers premium quality vegetable seeds for growing in the home or market garden or in fresh-market farm operations. An excellent choice for container gardening. 90 days to maturity.
