What Makes Survival Garden Seeds Different - non-GMO heirloom seeds

Turn up the heat in your garden with Orange Habanero Pepper Seeds from Survival Garden Seeds. This heirloom Capsicum chinense variety produces extremely hot, fruity peppers that deliver both tropical sweetness and serious spice—perfect for adventurous gardeners and bold-flavor cooks.

Each bright orange pepper packs 100,000 to 350,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU), making it a must-have for hot sauce lovers and fans of Caribbean or Latin American cuisine. Beyond their fire, Orange Habaneros offer a rich, fruity flavor that adds depth to salsas, marinades, and sauces—or can be dehydrated for long-term storage and homemade chili flakes.

Compact, bushy plants perform reliably in containers, raised beds, or garden plots, reaching full maturity in 75–120 days. With strong yields and vivid color, this variety is as ornamental as it is flavorful.

  • 100,000–350,000 SHU for true chili enthusiasts
  • Tropical, citrus-like flavor ideal for sauces and salsas
