About this pepper

The 7 Pot Evergreen is a Capsicum chinense cultivar originating from Trinidad and Tobago. Unlike many other 7 Pot peppers that mature to red, yellow, or chocolate colours, this variety ripens from light green to olive green, and may develop a sandy mustard tone if left to over-ripen. The pods are large, plump, and rounded, with a rough, dimpled surface.

The flavour is described as tangy, consistent with other green super-hot peppers. Plants can grow beyond 1.2 metres in height and produce pods that retain extreme heat levels typical of the 7 Pot lineage.
