Overview

An extremely hot, edible chilli grown from seed. Mainly grown for it's decorative, super-hot fruits (which have a rating of 350,000-400,000 on the Scoville Scale), 'Scotch Bonnet' will produce plenty of tam o' shanter-shaped chilli peppers throughout the summer. These can be eaten when they're green, pumpkin orange, or fiery red - although we'd always recommend wearing gloves when handling them. It's a good one to grow if you like your food spicy, and if you save the seeds from the ripe chillies, you can plant them up for another crop the following year. Care instructions: Grow on in a well-lit, warm location such as a sunny windowsill or greenhouse until all risk of frost has passed before moving them to their final growing positions outside, in a sunny spot, or keep in a greenhouse for earlier harvests and hotter fruits. Keep well watered and feed regularly with high-potash tomato food once the fruits begin to form.

  • Position: full sun
