Carolina Reaper Pepper Seeds | HP22B

In 2013, The Guinness Book of World Records declared the Carolina Reaper the “World’s Hottest Pepper.” Our Carolina Reaper Seeds produce peppers with average heat levels of 1,569,300 SHUs, but individual peppers have been known to reach up to 2,000,000-2,200,000 SHUs!

Carolina Reapers are relatively easy to grow, but original seeds are difficult to find anywhere else! Watch as these pepper plants stretch up to 5 ft. tall and produce these fiery-hot red pods that look like they're caving in on themselves! The original Carolina Reapers feature little stingers like their super hot counterpart, the Scorpion pepper.

This infamous pepper has a fruity and sweet/hot aroma, with a pleasant undertone of chocolate/cherry taste. The flavor is certainly not sacrificed for the extreme heat. This pepper is a great value because a little goes a long way; a quarter pod will heat a full pot of chili or spaghetti sauce.
