Overview
Gold Bullet is an early habanero with small bullet-shaped pods about 1 inch by 1/2 inch in a golden yellow-orange. The plant habit is unusual for a habanero: low and spreading, 2 to 3 feet tall but up to 4 feet wide, so give it space or a wide container. Heat is habanero-level. Being earlier than most chinense types, it is a good habanero for gardeners with shorter summers, though it still wants an early indoor start and warm soil.
