Pretty Wild Seeds Scotch Bonnet Red Chilli - Hot Pepper Seeds

Grow your own intense heat with Pretty Wild Seeds Scotch Bonnet Red chilli seeds. This popular variety is famous for its unique shape, resembling a traditional Scottish tam o' shanter hat. These chillies deliver a powerful heat and a strong, distinctive aroma that makes them a favorite for spice lovers. The plants are compact and bushy, reaching about 50cm in height, which makes them a great choice for growing in containers. The fruits start as a lovely pale green and mature into a vibrant red. Measuring between 2.5-4cm long, these small, glossy peppers are highly versatile in the kitchen. You can enjoy them fresh to experience their full flavor, or use this thin-walled variety for pickling, freezing, or infusing in olive oil. Because Scotch Bonnets are late to mature, typically reaching harvest in late August or September, we recommend sowing your seeds early. Each pictorial packet from our UK-based shop contains approximately 10 seeds, providing everything you need to start your home spice garden.
