The Jamaican Yellow Mushroom Pepper is a bright, fruity hot pepper from Jamaica with a citrusy aroma and a fierce 100,000 to 350,000 SHU heat. Its squat, mushroom-shaped yellow fruits smell like sweet yellow bell pepper but pack serious spice inside.

How to grow

Start seeds indoors 8 to 10 weeks before the last frost. These chinense peppers need a long, warm season, so transplant into full sun only after the soil has fully warmed. Be patient through a slow start and reward comes with heavy late-season fruiting.

Flavor profile

Citrusy and fruity up front with a bright tropical aroma, followed by an intense, lingering heat.
