Hot Pepper, Magnum Habanero
Hot Pepper, Magnum Habanero
Magnum equates to a larger size than "usual". That's probably not the dictionary version, but it's our version.
'Magnum Habanero' is a beautiful, vigorous plant that is tall and multi branched, yielding a profusion of 2-3" long bonnet shaped bright orange peppers. An improved early maturing variety. Very productive, with each plant producing up to 100 fruits (this is where the magnum comes from)! Takes time to mature so plant early as possible and protect from cold and frost.
Magnum Habanero is an improved early-maturing variety.
Peppers thrive in full sun and well draining, fertile soil. Mulch at the base of the plant to retain soil moisture throughout the growing season.
