Habanero Red

Habanero Red Chilli Seeds. This is - in my opinion - one of the best and tastiest Habaneros. It is a good grower, producing loads of red pods. Fruity, juicy, crunchy with that typical peppery Habanero bite that leaves the mouth aglow. These are milder than their orange, golden or brown cousins... but still a very hot chilli to be respected! Their plump sweet and fruitiness lends them very well to making salsas and sauces.

Pot Sizes:

	Small = 1-5 Litres*
	Small to Medium = 5-10 Litres*
	Medium = 10-15 Litres*
	Medium to Large = 15-20 Litres*
	Large = 20-25 Litres*

* The container sizes above are sugested sizes that are reasonable and accessible for most growers (taking price, space, ecological/environmental impact into consideration). Not everyone can look at growing in huge containers. If you can justify growing in larger containers  - there are no limitations on container sizes. You may however, rather look at growing in soil as an option in these instances. Using large amounts of potting medium will come with ecological/environmental impact, which you may wish to take into consideration.
