1,000,000-1,200,000 Scoville units. 

Peach Carolina Reaper

A pretty, peachy-colored riff on the world's second hottest pepper.  A cross between an original Carolina Reaper and a Jay's Peach Ghost Scorpion pepper.  This one will take a while to grow, but you will be rewarded with intense heat and a citrus bite.   

1,000,000-1,500,000 Scoville units. 

Chocolate Trinidad Scorpion

A beautiful take on the classic Trinidad Scorpion pepper.  2" cocoa-colored pods cover this productive plant that are about 100 times hotter than a jalapeno.  These peppers have a more mellow, less acidic flavor with smoky undertones.  Great for BBQ and hot sauces.  

1,200,000 Scoville units. 

Death Spiral

A gorgeous and intense pepper with a twisted shape that ranks among the world's hottest! The menacing fruit is contorted and wrinkled with a fierce little scythe-shaped tail. Jim Duffy developed this pepper after noticing a variant of the Naga Bubblegum Red chili. This pepper has a floral flavor and intense mouth burn that hits the tongue, gums, and roof of the mouth.   

1,300,000 Scoville units. 

Apocalypse Scorpion

An Italian super-hot that is full of warts and searing heat. The plant grows to be about 4 feet tall and produces red pods with stingers.  One pod can be added to sweet peppers and still make a hot, hot sauce.   

1,400,000 Scoville units. 

Komodo Dragon

Introduced in 2015 and sold in Tesco stores in the UK, this pepper rivals the Carolina Reaper as one of the hottest you can taste.  A cross between a Bhut Jolokia (Ghost) and a Trinidad Scorpion pepper.  The spiciness comes on slow and then when the heat explosion hits, it lingers.  The plants produce 1.5-2.5 inch pods on a 3-4 foot tall bushy plant.    

1,400,000-2,200,000 Scoville units. 

Genghis Khan Brain

Genghis Khan Brain is small and pimply, but don't let that fool you.  No official tests have been done yet, but many say this pepper blows away the Carolina Reaper--and we agree.  Genghis has lots of fruity notes while still packing a punch.  Plants can grow over four feet tall. 

Over 1,500,000 Scoville units. 

Gator Jigsaw Orange

Gator Jigsaws are always talked about in the realm of hottest pepper.  This blistered orange variation has a fruity and smoky flavor.  Plants can grow 4-5' tall with pods having a pronounced stinger. 

Over 1,500,000 Scoville units. 

T-Rex

The T-Rex pepper was given to us in a seed exchange.  The standard color is yellow but there are red and mustard variants.  It is known for its fruity flavor but the heat hits almost immediately. 

Over 1,500,000 Scoville units. 

7 Pot Primo

Developed by Troy Primeaux of Primo's Pepper.  This pepper is consistantly in the hotly debated arguement of hottest pepper in the world. They tend to be bumpy with a long tail. A must for the pepper fanatic.  

Over 1,500,000 Scoville units. 

Carolina Reaper

Don't fear the Reaper! For our Heat Seekers, Carolina Reaper is a must.  For those less adventurous, they make a great conversation piece in the garden. These devious little peppers are fiery red with a little scythe-shaped tail at the base of may fruits, hence the name Reaper.

1,500,000-2,000,000 Scoville units. 

Dragon's Breath

Originally developed to be a topical anesthetic, this unofficially tested pepper clocked in at 2.48 million Scovilles.  A warning was issued from the university including the potential for death by choking or anaphylactic shock, although one science writer noted that this was a standard warning that applied only to relevant allergies--but we are passing it along. Handle with extreme caution--cut these outside with two layers of gloves.   

2,000,000++ Scoville units.

About Us

Meet the Heat

  Peppers and Pots was born from the love of gardening and spicy food.  What started out as a couple pepper plants among a typical garden has turned into a dedicated 600 square foot raised bed of over 100 pepper varieties. 

    We currently have 1000 square feet total of vegetable beds, and our flower beds are approximately 1600 square feet which allows us to grow many varieties of sunflowers and zinnias for cut flowers. 

  All pepper seedlings sold to our customers are raised from seed here on the farm.  We start sowing on January 1st so you can enjoy more peppers. We make our own soil from coconut coir, perlite, vermiculite, and earthworm castings.  We use natural fertilizers from fish, seaweed, and epsom salt to feed our plants.

We hope you find as much love for these peppers as we do.

 Seek the Heat!
