CHILLI - Scotch Bonnet Jamaican Orange seeds

CHILLI Scotch Bonnet - Jamaican Orange - 10 Seeds

Also known as, Bahama Mama, Jamaican Hot, Scotty Bons, Bonney chilli, Boabs Bonnet, Caribbean Hot and goat chilli.

Scotch Bonnet Orange chillies are very very hot with a strong aroma. They measure 2.5 to 4cm long by 2.5 to 3cm wide and mature from a lovely pale green to bright orange.

Scotch Bonnet Orange gets its name from the Scottish 'tam o' shanter' hat it resembles. They taste best fresh but this thin-walled variety can also be frozen/pickled or put in olive oil very successfully. It is a short bushy plant that reaches about 50cm tall and looks 'fab' in containers but as Scotch Bonnets are late to mature sow early to ensure it produces good yields.

This is not one for the 'faint hearted' but great for chilli heads!
