🌱 Variety
Our seeds grow into the Caribbean Red Habanero, a vibrant red cultivar of the classic habanero. Renowned for its explosive heat and juicy, fruit-forward flavor, it’s a favorite among serious chiliheads and professional kitchens.
🔬 Species
Caribbean Red Habanero belongs to Capsicum chinense, the species responsible for the world’s hottest and most flavorful chilies. This species is also home to the famous Ghost Pepper, Scotch Bonnet, and Carolina Reaper.
🌍 Origin
The habanero pepper’s roots trace back to the Amazon basin, but it was in the Caribbean—particularly Jamaica, Barbados, and the Yucatán Peninsula of Mexico—that habaneros were refined into the fruity, fiery varieties we know today. The Caribbean Red is a local selection prized for its brilliant color and intense heat. Learn more about habanero history at PepperScale.
🧬 Hybridizer (if applicable)
Caribbean Red Habanero isn’t a modern hybrid; it evolved naturally through generations of traditional cultivation by Caribbean farmers who selected the hottest, sweetest, and most productive plants for seed saving. This careful selection stabilized the variety into the stunningly consistent pepper you can grow today.
🎯 Description
Caribbean Red Habaneros produce lantern-shaped pods measuring 4–6 centimeters (1.5–2.5 inches) long. Pods ripen from pale green to a fiery, glossy red. The flesh is thin but juicy, bursting with flavors of apricot, citrus, and tropical fruit, followed by a searing heat that lingers long after each bite. This irresistible combination makes it a standout among all hot peppers.
🌿 Plant Size
Fully mature Caribbean Red Habanero plants reach 60–100 cm (2–3.5 feet) tall and spread about 60 cm (2 feet) wide. They form compact, bushy plants with dense foliage, perfect for garden beds, large containers, or greenhouse cultivation.
🌡️ Pungency
With a heat range of 300,000–445,000 SHU, the Caribbean Red Habanero sits comfortably in the Very Hot category—about twice as hot as standard orange habaneros. This makes it one of the hottest habanero varieties available. According to The Chile Pepper Institute, habaneros are among the most popular chilies for combining intense heat with complex, fruity flavor.
🌱 Grow Difficulty
Caribbean Red Habaneros are moderately challenging to grow, making them ideal for intermediate gardeners. These plants need warm temperatures above 24°C (75°F), high humidity during germination, and at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily. However, once established, they thrive with regular watering, balanced fertilization, and good air circulation.
⏳ Days to Germination
Under optimal conditions with a heat mat or propagator, seeds germinate within 7–21 days, but some may take up to 28 days if conditions fluctuate.
🌾 Days to Harvest After Transplant
Once seedlings are transplanted into their final location, you can expect your first ripe pods 90–110 days later. Caribbean Red Habanero plants are prolific producers, often yielding dozens of pods per plant throughout the season.
🍽️ Culinary Uses
The Caribbean Red Habanero is a culinary superstar. Here’s how to make the most of your fiery harvest:
- Hot Sauces: Create homemade Caribbean-style hot sauces bursting with fruity heat—perfect for jerk chicken, grilled seafood, or roasted vegetables.
- Salsas & Relishes: Combine chopped habanero with mango, pineapple, or papaya for vibrant salsas that balance sweetness and spice.
