Chilli Bhut Jolokia
Description
One of the world's hottest chilli peppers with at least 2-3 times the heat of a red habanero. Originating in Northern India and also known as the "Ghost Chilli", the orange/red lantern shaped fruit have a hint of citrus with their intense heat. The big bushy plants can be a tad brittle so ripe fruit should be cut rather than pulled from the plant. Stake to one metre.
Maturity 80 days from transplant.
