| A nice, fruity habanero that is plenty hot, just not as outrageous as fatalii s or chocolate habs. I love to make poppers or hot sauce with this sometimes over looked habanero. It's a smaller plant than the orange or Red Savina habaeros, so it's not going to produce as many peppers, but it is productive enough for me since there's only so much of tht kind of heat that I can use. |

| Good habanero flavor, but not as hot as Red Savina, nor as productive, and much later in my garden, so I only grew this once. |
