It produces distinctive small, bonnet-shaped fruits that ripen from green through yellow to fiery orange-red, with a unique fruity, almost apricot-like flavour beneath the intense heat. Scoville ratings typically range from 100,000 to 350,000 SHU, making it genuinely very hot. Plants are bushy and productive in a warm, sheltered position or under glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOther benefits:\u003c\/b\u003e exceptional fruity flavour alongside intense heat; prolific cropping in warm conditions; excellent for making hot sauces and Caribbean cooking\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWildlife attraction:\u003c\/b\u003e bees and other pollinating insects\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHeight \u0026amp; spread (approx.) at maturity:\u003c\/b\u003e 60–90cm x 60cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePosition:\u003c\/b\u003e full sun; best under glass or in a warm, sheltered outdoor position\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSoil pH:\u003c\/b\u003e slightly acid to neutral (pH 6.0–7.0); fertile, well-drained soil or compost\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMoisture:\u003c\/b\u003e regular watering required; avoid waterlogging; liquid feed with high-potash fertiliser once flowering begins\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWinter hardiness:\u003c\/b\u003e frost tender; grow as an annual from spring\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Coletta \u0026 Tyson","offers":[{"title":"Set of 3 10.5 cm pots","offer_id":56812290081146,"sku":"COL-10.5-CHI-SCO-BONX3","price":18.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Set of 6 10.5 cm pots","offer_id":56812379865466,"sku":"COL-10.5-CHI-SCO-BONX6","price":25.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0320\/6758\/4138\/files\/Chilli-Scotch-Bonnet-105cm-Cedar-Nursery-Surrey-5.png?v=1776331828","url":"https:\/\/www.landscaping.co.uk\/products\/ct-capsicum-chinense-scotch-bonnet-herbaceous","provider":"Cedar Nursery - Plants and Outdoor Living","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
