Turn up the heat in your garden with the legendary Caribbean Red Habanero, one of the world’s hottest peppers and a favorite among spice lovers. These small lantern-shaped fruits ripen to a brilliant scarlet red, glowing like jewels against the dark green foliage. With Scoville ratings that often exceed 250,000 units, Red Habaneros deliver an intense, fiery heat balanced by a distinct tropical fruitiness, hints of citrus and apricot beneath the burn.
 
Native to the Caribbean and Central America, this heirloom variety thrives in warm, sunny conditions and produces abundantly all season long. Plants reach about 24–36 inches in height and are highly ornamental as well as culinary. Red Habaneros are a must-have for making hot sauces, salsas, and marinades, or for those daring enough, fresh use in cooking. Handle with care, as even the seeds and oils pack a powerful punch!

Most people don’t know that the trick to big healthy peppers that you see in the store is calcium! Peppers require calcium to reach their maximum potential and to help them combat pests naturally. 
 
Use your spent eggshells or garden gypsum to add calcium to the soil in addition to vegetable fertilizer. I use organic chicken manure based fertilizer. 
 
Do not plant peppers where you just previously planted tomatoes, eggplant or potatoes as this can make them more susceptible to disease as they are all from
the same family. The pests that are attracted to these plants can remain in the soil for a while and build up and cause problems for future crops. They also use the same nutrients and can deplete the soil of what they need in particular if planted in the same spot. It’s always good as a general rule to add fresh soil and rotate all crops.
