The “Carolina Reaper” has been rated as the world’s hottest chilli pepper by Guinness World Records since August 7, 2013.
The famous Carolina Reaper averages at 1,569,300 on the Scoville Scale with peak levels of over 2,200,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU). The original crossbreed was between a Bhut Jolokia (Ghost Pepper), a former world record holder, and a Red Habanero chilli pepper.
This is it. The big one. The BIG DADDY of the chilli pepper family. The Carolina Reaper blows away the Moruga Scorpion’s measly 2 million SHU by over 200,000 SHU’s. It’s one evil-looking chilli pepper having the texture and scorpion tail of it’s Trinidadian Relatives. There is a bit of confusion around the Reaper’s origins but the world record is held by ‘Smokin Ed’s Carolina Reaper’ which has been patented by Ed Currie, owner of PuckerButt Pepper Co. You’d be wise to fear the Reaper.

Scarlett Variegated
C. Annuum
Approx 5,000-10,000 SHUThe Scarlett chilli is a cross between a Purple Tiger and a Jalapeno that was originally bred by Graeme Chaplin in Western Australia. We have grown it out many times and it appears to be mostly stable. It’s truely maginificent to behold as it grows and the pods start their transformations. The green and white variegated foliage has splashes of Scarlett throughout and the pods start dark purple and transition through a range of stripey colours of violet, yellow, orange and red. This version has upward growing pods 3-4cm x 2cms in size. The Scarlett Chilli plant grows short and compact and is super easy growing. The taste is sweet and reminiscent of the Jalapeno flavour.

Jay’s Peach Ghost Scorpion
C. Chinense
900,000 SHUJay’s Peach Ghost Scorpion is a winner if you are chasing incredible heat. The cross of a Ghost Chilli and a Trinidad Scorpion by Jay Weaver presents us with this gnarly peach coloured Chilli! It is now about 7 generations old so getting very stable. A bit milder in flavour than the Ghost is nice and the slightly floral and sweet flavour is very good. At about 900,000 SHU, it’s running with the big boys and not to be taken lightly. Jay’s Peach Ghost Scorpion is on most hardcore chilli growers list for a good reason!

Moruga Scorpion Yellow
C. Chinense
Approx 800,000 – 1,000,000 SHUIf you love the Trinidad Moruga Red then we think you will love the yellow variety even more. From what we have been told it’s a natural occurring variant of the Moruga Red being slightly sweeter with a definite citrusy tang to it(if you can taste this past the heat that is). Of the all the superhots the flavour of this one is a standout. Pod size is respectable but a tad smaller than the red variety. A special one for the serious chilli head – so what are you waiting for :-).

Devils Brain Red
C. Chinense
Approx. 1,000,000 – 1,200.000 SHU
Another devilishly hot one. The Devils brain is a hybrid creation of the Brain Strain from Judy over at Pepperlover.com. We grew a few plants of this one and the pods colour and shape were very consistent. Meant to be up there with the Carolina Reaper heat level wise although it has a slow burn build up – so watch yourself with this sneaky one. Why it’s called the Devil’s Brain we can’t say but we love the name all the same.

White Bhut Jolokia aka Ghost
C. Chinense
600,000 – 800,000 SHUWhat’s hot, spooky and just too damn sexy for the garden? – The White Ghost chilli of course. Apparently now a stable variation of the Red Ghost this one is almost as hot – ouch. Pods grow about 4-5cms long and turn from light green to an awesome almost translucent white. When you cut them open you get that super strong Bhut aroma and the fumes are enough to kill a herd of elephants. The heat hits almost immediately and travels quickly to the back of the throat. The White Ghost is definitely more mild and flavorful than the other Ghosts we have tasted. What more can we say get your hands on this beauty you wont be disappointed.

Pimientos de Padrón
C. Annuum
500 – 2500 SHUThe Padron is quite obviously from Spain. Nearly everyone will know the name. It may well be the most well known pepper in the Mediterranean area. These are used all the time in Tapas and while not usually all that hot, for some reason there can be one that will light your fire! They are usually picked and eaten green, unlike our picture! They are probably one of the World’s best “frying peppers”. If you have not tried these sautéed in olive oil and salt, you are really missing out. Once the Padron passes your lips you will be hooked. It is a ‘must grow’ for us and hopefully you too.

Golden Nugget
C. Annuum
20,000 – 30,000SHUWe knew this would be a good one before we even grew it and we were not disappointed. It’s from the USA but little else is known about the origin. This rare little gem is being used for pickling and drying and is apparently very good! Its amazing variegated foliage is extremely rare in the chilli world and adds to the appeal of this great ornamental. The fruit start green, then turn jet black before they ripen to gold with some amazing color changes in between. This chilli is a classic and is so beautiful you will want to hug it like you hug your dog dog!

ODA Pepper
C. Annuum
SWEET 0 SHUThe ODA is one of the most beautiful chillies we have grown EVER…It is simply stunning with its colour transformations as it grows bigger and bigger to around 6cm x 8cms. Starting creamy white the fruit then turn a vibrant purple before ripening to a deep orange red. Plant wise the ODA is very small and compact considering the size of the peppers. So you can even grow them in medium sized pots with the right supply of nutrients. We found it super easy to grow and the peppers got real big, real fast. The fruit are thick-fleshed and mostly cone-shaped with an amazing sweet rich flavour. No heat to this one but who cares when it looks this good. A great replacement for your usual red capsciums for a tastier salad and/or stir fry.
