Pepper – Carolina Reaper (Hot Pepper)

Description

Hot Pepper – Insanely Hot! 

Scoville Heat Units: 2,200,000

Days to Maturity: 95 days

Full Sun 

Water Needs: water regularly, but allow soil to dry in between waterings – peppers don’t like to be always wet

Peppers are heat loving plants, so don’t plant them outside until all chances of frost are past; night lows must be above 50 degrees F.

Be careful!! The ‘Carolina Reaper’ is one of the world’s hottest peppers and is the hottest pepper we grow at Milaeger’s; it is not for the faint of heart! The fruit looks almost evil – a gnarled, rumpled, red pepper with a pointed tail – and is unbelievably hot, rating at 2.2 Million Scoville Heat Units! The ‘Carolina Reaper’ is a must try for all heat fanatics. Just a little piece of one of these peppers will provide enough heat for any salsa, sauce, or chili. Please handle this pepper and its seeds with caution, use gloves and even a mask if necessary!
