Description:
Peach Habanero peppers are probably the sweetest of the habanero varieties.... but don't let that fool you on how hot they still are! Also known as Habanero Peach, the Peach Habanero pepper came to us from grower James Weaver, an Amish farmer who was able to grow this unique strain of the Orange Habanero.
These habanero pepper plants are very compact and bushy, growing only to about 1-1/2 ft. tall, but they produce wonderful yields of these 2-3" long peppers that look smooth, shiny, and bright. Peach habaneros ripen from green to their light salmon color that stands out amongst your garden's foliage.
While we say they're sweeter, the Peach Habanero chili still has plenty of heat and flavor! Heat levels reach anywhere between 200,000-350,000 SHUs, and the flavors are typical of habaneros: fruity, citrusy, and tropical with a little sweetness. These peppers have many culinary uses - try making a Peach Habanero Jelly, this is an absolutely fantastic flavor!
