You know.. I have contemplated the Peter Pepper for conversational purposes, however my two macho roommates would flip out.

What's the heat on the Peter Pepper?
What did you give your Father in Law that was not that hot? We need a bench mark here..

Actually, it was the Peter Pepper. He liked the taste but he wanted hotter peppers.

You have mail.

Ditto

I deal mainly with habs and peters and have a business on ebay, so I can tell you that there are as many differing peters out there as any other peppers; they are hot but not meant to be HAWT...for that you need to look at the Ghost pepper or the WirriWirri...just a thought

Grow the peter peppers for novelty... grow the BHUT JOLOKIA for HEAT!

I'd say it's hard to go wrong growing Habaneros. Got plenty of heat and easy to grow. The Bhut Jolokia (aka. Ghost Chili as mentioned by organzmo) cost more and are more temperamental:

The hottest one I grow this year is Fatali. I would like to try some Bhut's or Trinidad Scorpions at some time. Maybe next year.

Would love to get my hands on some of your hot pepper seeds if anyone is willing to share. I will be very happy to send sase for the seeds. I'm from the Caribbean and we are home of the weri weri peppers. I will love to get some seeds of those peppers including other types of the hot pepper seeds. Yes I love the heat...the hotter the better for me.

Thank you,

Alicia.
