Capsicum Chinense
CHILLI-SCOTCH BONNET-JAMAICAN YELLOW fruits ripen from green to yellow. Fruit size 4.5cm long by 3.8cm, plant height 1.2m. A compact type of chili plant that grows beautiful (and hot!) thin-skinned squash shaped golden colored pods.
The densely foliaged chilli plant bears many chilli peppers that have a mainly refreshing taste once you get past the rather intense heat. This is a really hardy variety of chilli that can withstand a range of conditions, although consistent frosts and/or boggy conditions will kill it. Heat level 8 – 10.

More About Us
ABSeeds is an Australian owned business trading under the umbrella of Direct Compost Solutions which is owned and managed by Victoria Brun.
We as a company endeavor to provide to the public, Organic, Old Fashioned, Heritage, and Open-pollinated seeds that have not been genetically modified.
We purchased the business in November 2018 and renamed it to ABSeeds (All ‘Bout Seeds) to make the title shorter and represent what we hope to achieve with this business in the years ahead.
Seeds that we can’t grow ourselves we will acquire from people who grow for us, or we may purchase seeds from reputable heritage seed companies.
