Pepper HOT 'Red Scotch Bonnet Habanero' Plant (4" Pot, single)

Also known as Jamaican peppers. These small, thin skinned, peppers are shaped like a patty pan squash that resemble a Scotsman’s bonnet, which is called a Tam O’Shanter hat. This highly demanded pepper adds a spicy Caribbean kick to just about any meal and has a heat level similar to habaneros. Scotch Bonnets are used in all sorts of Caribbean cuisine, including the well-known jerk chicken (or jerk pork). Why the Caribbean? Because this is THE pepper of the region. In fact, if you say you want a hot pepper in most of the Caribbean islands, the scotch bonnet pepper is what you are handed. This is a nice pepper to add to other peppers for hot pepper powder and flakes, and is a favorite pepper for making hot sauce and drying. It has a strong, smoky, fruity flavor and is spicy hot!
