Overview
White Habanero is a Caribbean habanero type with small creamy-white, top-shaped pods 1 to 2 inches long on small bushy plants. Despite the pale color the heat is extreme, with the smoky flavor typical of the region's peppers. The compact plant suits containers and is decorative enough to count as an ornamental.
