Scotch Bonnet Yellow Pepper Plant

Heat Level: Hot (225,000 SHU)

Species: C. chinense

Pod Color: Yellow

Price: $25.00 USD

Yellow variant of the Scotch Bonnet. Capsicum chinense, 100,000–350,000 SHU. Full Scotch Bonnet flavor profile — fruity, sweet-hot, floral — in a yellow pod. Named for the traditional Scottish tam o’shanter hat the pod shape resembles. Essential in Jamaican and Caribbean cuisine. The flavor differs enough from habaneros that they are not interchangeable. Worth growing if you cook Caribbean food.
