Cow Horn Hot Peppers are named after their shape and relation to, you guessed it, a cow's horn! These cayenne peppers are one of the largest chilis in the world and make for a great addition to many different cuisines. The Cow Horn plant grows up to 3 ft. tall and produces pods that can grow up to 8-10” long and 1" wide. That’s three Jalapeños to match the total length of the average Cow Horn pepper! These pods start out as green, then turn to red as they ripen. Their shape is long, slender, and curved with very thick walls. These chiles are an excellent choice for those who want to take their produce to market and those who want to grow these at a smaller scale in home gardens. The Cow Horn Peppers' thick walls make this phenomenal for making sauces and drying to turn into pepper flakes. We recommend cooking with this pepper because its heat is family-friendly, so the Cow Horn is also great for pickling, hot sauces, salsas, and many more culinary uses.

The Wartryx Pepper is a gnarly-looking super hot pepper with extreme variation. This wicked cross was created by Matthew Arthur, and was believed to have been bred between a Trinidad Scorpion, a 7 Pot Jonah, and (potentially) a Scotch Bonnet, but the third pepper is still a mystery, No matter what, however, you can expect some incredible heat to come from this pod! These pepper plants will grow up to 3 ft. tall and produce high yields of these super hot peppers. We say the third pepper may be a Scotch Bonnet because these 2" long pods have the same mushroom shape with rough, wrinkly, bumpy skin. The pods are as big as a golf ball, are thin-walled, and tender, ripening from green to red when they reach maturity. The heat on these peppers reaches beyond 1,200,000 SHUs, so we urge you to be careful with these chilis. With a sharp, extreme burn that Wartryx peppers deliver, this sensation will stay on your tongue for a long time. Beyond the heat, you'll notice a citrusy and floral scent, with a bitter taste that makes this great in soups and stews. You can also use Wartryx peppers in hot sauces, salsas, and pepper powder when dried up. Enjoy more scorching peppers with our Super Hot Pepper Seeds and Super Hot Pepper Plants! We also carry some extremely hot Super Hot Snacks & Spices - are you brave enough to try them?

They have a pendant-looking shape, tapering off to a point, with a raisin-like, wrinkly texture and a brownish-red color as they ripen to maturity.

This is a unique and delightful little pepper with a variety of traditional uses. The peppers grow abundantly on vigorous 3 ft. tall plants that will bear pods early and for a longer season.

Gourmet gardeners will love growing the Padron pepper seed for their productivity, flavors and heat, and easy maintenance. They have spice in them, but less spice than a Jalapeño, and the red Padrons have a sweeter flavor.

The Habanero chili dates back over 8,500 years old, when it originated from the Amazon and spread to Mexico. Spanish colonists disseminated this pepper to other areas of the world, becoming so popular that taxonomists at the time mistook the pepper's origin for China (hence where the term Capsicum Chinense came from). Habanero pepper plants average around 4 ft. tall, but they can grow much higher when planted directly into the soil in warmer climates. Often compared to the Scotch Bonnet pepper, they both have thin, waxy flesh that shines incredibly bright in the sunlight. These peppers mature from a mustard green to their signature orange color. The Habanero pepper is incredibly popular across Mexico and much of Central and South America, with the Yucatán Peninsula being the largest producer of these peppers in the world. These peppers boast a wonderfully sweet and fruity flavor, with some noting a subtle smoky taste, and contain heat levels as high as 350,000 SHUs! This was considered world-record heat in 1999, when the Habanero pepper was listed by the Guinness World Records as the world's hottest pepper. Habaneros are an integral part of Yucatecan food, accompanying most dishes, either as itself or purée or salsa.
