Habanero White Heat, also known as Peruvian White Habanero, originates from Peru and is one of the more rare varieties of Habanero. Don't let that cool white/cream colour fool you though, they are fiery little chillies reaching up to 350,000 on the Scoville scale and deliver a distinctive smokey flavour.

Habanero White Heat is Native to Central America and grown as a vegetable, Capsicum chinense is a tropical herb that is 70-80 cm tall. C. chinense varieties are well known for their unique flavours and many have exceptional heat. The hottest peppers in the world are members of this species, with Scoville Heat Unit scores of over 2 million. The leaves are compound with each leaf composed of 3 leaflets. The flowers found in the axils of leaves. They are white and occur singly or in clusters of two. The fruit is used as a flavouring and spice. It has tonic and antiseptic properties. It increases perspiration, reduces pain sensitivity, and stimulates the circulatory and digestive systems. 

Each chilli ripens from green to light yellow and then eventually a creamy white colour. They make ideal patio plants as they only grow to about 40cm tall and produce fruit much smaller than other chilli plants, being about 2cm long. The longer the fruit is left on the plant the hotter it will become...you have been warned!

Handle peppers with extreme caution and always wash your hands handling, keep out of reach of children and immature adults!!
