Pepper-Habanero

Pepper-Habanero Capsicum annuum This group contains some of the spiciest of all peppers. Habanero is a Spanish word that means "from Havana." Habanero and its relatives migrated from the Central America to the Caribbean Islands, many, many years ago. The Jamaican Scotch Bonnet is a similar cousin.
