Pepper habanero Roulette F1

2018 AAS Edible – Vegetable Winner

Roulette F1 resembles a traditional habanero pepper in every way (fruit shape, size and color, and plant type) with one exception – No Heat! This AAS National Winner’s one-ounce fruits are red with thick walls when it matures and a nice citrusy (no heat) habanero flavor! Gardeners will be delighted with the earlier production of large, uniform fruit and a very high yield. One judge noted that each plant easily produces 10-11 fruits at one time and up to 100 per season so there are plenty to eat fresh, cook with, and enjoy! For an early fruit production of a habanero pepper that will charm even those that don’t like it hot, take your chances…Roulette is the perfect choice.

Reviews

  1. AAS Display Garden- River Valley Master Gardeners – 08/16/2018

    Roulette Habanero produced abundant ripe peppers 90 days after planting. These peppers are so mild one enjoyably can eat them raw. The habanero flavor comes through, but not the mouth scorching heat. Zone 6a
