This is a no-heat habanero pepper that looks and tastes like an orange habanero. The flavor and aroma of Trick or Treat is equal to, or better than a hot habanero. This variety was crossed with a Capsicum chinense orange habanero that was lacking the capsacin heat gene.

Make salsa with incredible flavor by using six Trick or Treat peppers and one hot habanero. The flavor will be out of this world!

The orange lantern shaped pods grow on 24”-36” tall plants that continue to produce fruit all summer long. Capsicum chinense (95 days) Heirloom - Open-pollinated

Heat Level: Sweet.  Scoville Heat Units: 0

~ Packet contains 10 seeds.

*Note: Low germination percentage at 50%. We are glad to bring this pepper back. We encourage you to save your own seeds from your peppers for increased seed vigor and germination next season!

Short and bushy

Not all seeds germinated but the pack came with a few more than labeled. The ones that did germinate produced nice bushy plants. Still waiting on fruiting:)

Good for Mild Salsa

I use these tasty habaneros in my "mild" salsa I make for my Mom. who can't tolerate heat. We both love the flavor of this pepper in salsa! Although, I pair it with a wicked hot Habanero salsa so I can swap between the two. I'll grow these every year.

Great Flavor!

Well, while I like hot peppers, not everyone does. This is a great Habanero to add to salsas for those who can't take the spice. They have great flavor, and are pretty and prolific. These had great germination, too, with some heat. Nearly every seed sprouted! I highly recommend this if you like the flavor of Habaneros but want to tame the heat in your recipes.
