The Caribbean yellow habanero hot pepper is one of the hottest versions of the habanero. With the typical citrusy-smoky flavor of yellow habaneros and twice the heat, this variety is a perfect addition to a pot of soup, and they make killer hot sauce.
In spite of its fierce, intense heat, it has a wonderful, distinctive flavor with tropical fruit tones that mix well with food containing tropical fruits, soups, or tomatoes.
It even grows nicely in both hot and cool climates, either in an open field or in a greenhouse.

The Habanero Caribbean Yellow Pepper stands out with an unbelievable spicy heat and a very high fruit yield. Although the pepper is wrinkled and has thin skin, it is still very succulent and possesses a rich and complex flavor. Its tropical, fruity flavor makes them an essential ingredient in every food or soup. The ripe habanero is a little sweeter and has a more developed fruitiness than the green immature habañero.
Management
Germination temperature is between 22°C and 28°C (germination period: 12-21 days); it is therefore recommended to use a greenhouse or an open field.
The plants need fresh, well-fertilized, permeable soil, and do not tolerate waterlogging.
They should be placed in a sunny, protected place with at least 6 hours of sunlight.
As the plants have a particularly long maturation period, it may be preferable to grow them in a pot, so that you can easily bring the plants inside when the temperature falls below 12°C during the day, allowing all the fruits to ripen.
Planting
If starting in the nursery, allow 7 to 10 weeks for the seeds to mature into seedlings large enough to transplant safely.
Fertilize when the blooms appear, and water well.
The fruit is most nutritious if allowed to ripen on the plant.
