Habanero Pepper
If you’re a fan of fiery flavors, our Habanero Pepper from Platt Hill Nursery is the perfect addition to your garden. This annual vegetable plant boasts strong, upright stems that can reach up to eight feet, making it an excellent choice for patio containers and gardens alike. The small, brightly colored fruit is deliciously spicy and perfect for a range of culinary uses, including hot sauces, drying, salsas, and pickling.
Beyond its edible qualities, Habanero Pepper also has ornamental merits with its green oblong peppers that feature vibrant orange overtones. The fruit is usually ready for picking from late summer to early fall, and will often fade to red over time.
When cooked, dried, or used as a seasoning, Habanero Pepper adds a bold kick of flavor to any dish. Plus, its crisp texture ensures a satisfying crunch with every bite.
To plant and grow, Habanero Pepper typically reaches about four feet tall at maturity with a spread of 16 inches. If planting in rows, individual plants should be spaced approximately 24 inches apart. So why wait? Add some fiery flavor to your garden with our Habanero Pepper from Platt Hill Nursery.
