YELLOW SEVEN POT HOT PEPPER

Yellow Seven Pot pepper is a most dangerously deceptive piece of eye candy. Cheerful canary yellow peppers are highly ornamental, lending a tropical feel to the edible landscape. Wise gardeners know not to turn their backs on this attractive fruit. The Yellow Seven Pot pepper from Trinidad ranks as one of the world’s hottest peppers, with over 1 million on the Scoville scale! The inviting yellow color does indicate a more mild fruit than the darker colored Seven Pot peppers, but this remains one of the world’s hottest peppers and is not to be taken lightly. Phenomenal pepper for making zippy yellow hot sauce, although not for the faint of heart!
