Habanero Francisca Orange (TM) Chili Seeds
Info: The Habanero Francisca Orange Chili is a very large variety whose plants produce masses of large orange fruits. It is bredd from the same farm as the famous Habanero Red Savina and has an incredible heat. The plants are relatively robust and the chillies are more durable than other types. As typical for Habaneros, they have a fruity flavour and juicy walls. In the kitchen they are typically used for making sauces and marinades, but due to their thin fruit walls they are also good for drying and making into chili powder.
General Info: The Habanero variety probably comes from the Yucatan region of Mexico. While the name "Habanero" means "from Havana" in English, they are only found occasionally in Cuba. They are still mainly cultivated on the Yucatan peninsula, although there they are predominantly orange and yellow Habanero varieties. The red varieties mostly come from the Caribbean or the southern states of the USA.
Care: The germination temperature is between 22 und 28°C (8 - 20 day germination period), therefore the use of a greenhouse and a heating mat is recommended. The plants need fresh, well-fertilised, permeable soil, and do not tolerate waterlogging. They should be planted in a sunny, protected place with at least 6 hours of sunlight - preferably more. Put the plants outside approx. 2 to 3 weeks after the last frost.
Tips for successful chili cultivation can be found in our Chili Cultivation Instructions and in the Chili Diary.
