Hot Pepper - Yellow 7 Pot (Young Plant)

Young Plant 5-10" tall.

Yellow Seven Pot pepper is a most dangerously deceptive piece of eye candy. Cheerful canary yellow peppers are highly ornamental, lending a tropical feel to the edible landscape. Wise gardeners know not to turn their backs on this attractive fruit. The Yellow Seven Pot pepper from Trinidad ranks as one of the world’s hottest peppers, with over 1 million on the Scoville scale! The inviting yellow color does indicate a more mild fruit than the darker colored Seven Pot peppers, but this remains one of the world’s hottest peppers and is not to be taken lightly. Phenomenal pepper for making zippy yellow hot sauce, although not for the faint of heart!

Scoville heat units (SHU): 1,000,000 - 1,200,000 SHU

Suggestions: Peppers need a warm soil and night temperature to prosper. They will stunt under 10C. Location should be sheltered from the wind and soil should be kept reasonably moist. Be sure to harden off the seedlings to reduce transplant stress. Harvest fruit early and often. The more you pick the more they will produce. Do not pull off fruit, rather cut from stems.


Pot size: Minimum 12" per plant or plant in ground 12" away from next plant.
