Description:
Lemon Habanero peppers, also known as Yellow Habaneros, come to us all the way from the Caribbean (with roots most likely originating in the Amazon region), and is an excellent addition to the Pepper Joe's collection!
The Lemon Habanero pepper plant stretches up to 4 ft. tall, producing these 2" long pods that have a very waxy skin. Pods have a lantern shape and bumpy texture that make these peppers look gnarly compared to other habanero varieties. You'll enjoy growing them as they ripen from green to yellow lemon when they reach maturity.
Our Lemon Habanero pepper has the typical fruity and citrusy flavors of all habaneros. It is amazing in chicken, fish, and seafood dishes. The lemon-scented chili also makes a great relish or hot sauce, so if you like growing peppers just for the fun of it or to make salsas and hot sauces, this is the pepper for you! Sometimes, we put it in a baggie and take it with us to restaurants.
