Overview
Limon Chile is a yellow habanero-type pepper whose pendulous pods hang like small bright lemons, shiny and wrinkled, tapered, about 1/2 by 1 1/2 inches. Heat is high, and the citrus look matches a citrusy flavor typical of yellow chinense types. It needs a long season, about 88 days from transplant, so start seed early with bottom heat. Good for yellow hot sauces and for drying.
