Ghost Pepper, also known as Bhut Jolokia or Naga Morich, is a legendary variety renowned for its extreme heat, measuring in excess of 1,000,000 Scoville units! This pepper, belonging to the species Chinense, originates in India and is famed as one of the hottest peppers globally. It starts as green fruit, turning yellow before ripening to red or chocolate hues. The fruit typically measures 2-3 inches in length, featuring a bumpy texture.

With its thin-walled and wrinkled appearance, the Ghost Pepper packs an intense heat that intensifies as the peppers ripen. The plant grows slowly initially but thrives into a tall, vigorous plant, often exceeding heights of 4 feet under favorable conditions. Approach with caution when handling seeds, plant parts, or peppers, as their extreme heat can cause real damage if the oils come into contact with the skin or eyes.
