Species: Chinese Origin: Unknown Heat Level: Very Hot Habanero Orange chiles are a little slower to germinate than many others, but this chile variety is worth the wait as it is 40 times hotter than a standard Jalapeno Pepper! A producer of light green, thin, crinkled peppers which ripen to a brilliant orange-red coloration (85-95 days), each chile pepper is around 1½ inches long by about 1 inch across. This variety is dangerously hot and not for the faint hearted, tipping in at an eye watering 200,000 - 300,000 scoville heat units.
