Red Savina Habanero pepper seeds develop into plants that once bore the title of the world’s hottest pepper, a distinction from 1994 to 2007 with a peak heat measurement of 577,000 SHU, according to the Scoville scale.
This exceptional variety originated from the selective breeding of various Habanero types in California, resulting in a pepper that retains the familiar fruity and fiery profile of Habaneros but with a slightly subdued intensity.
The fruits, larger than the typical red Habanero, measure between 3 to 6 cm and flaunt a vibrant red hue. The plants are notably vigorous, capable of exceeding one meter in height and producing an abundant yield repeatedly throughout the growing season.
Gardeners can expect the first fruits about 100 days after transplanting, making it a rewarding choice for those seeking both a challenge and a taste of history in their gardens. The Red Savina is especially popular for crafting fiery sauces and salsas, offering a heat that is both intense and remarkably flavorful.
