'Habanada' Mild Habanero Pepper

---

Description
Habanada mild habaneros are the perfect pepper for those who love the fruity sweet flavor of a habanero but can't handle the heat. The compact plants produce an abundance of peppers that sweeten as they turn orange. The heat level is minimal, making this a great pepper for flavoring salsas and hot sauce without all the fire.
