The Red Savina is an extremely hot Habanero; former world record holder at 577,000 SHU. Pods measure 1.5 to 2.5 inches long by 1 to 1.5 inches wide, with thicker flesh than most Habaneros. Pendant pods matures from medium green to bright red. Plants can grow 30 to 48 inches tall with pale to medium green leaves. Late season producer. C. chinense.
Plant spacing should be 16 to 20 inches apart in rows 4 to 5 feet apart. If growing single plants they will benefit from staking or being in a supporting cage to support the branches due to the abundant heavy fruit, especially in windy areas, to prevent branches from braking off. Start early indoors to insure an abundant ripe crop before frost. Harvest when bright red and shiny.
