be just slightly rounder/shorter than habaneros. It also seems that habaneros tend to be a deeper orange color. This perception may be caused by the fact that I grow habaneros and not Scotch bonnets; my peppers probably get much better care than the stunted Scotch bonnets I see in the grocery. I'll grant that it may be difficult to distinguish one from the other unless you have both kinds side by side. ___________________________ Jim Flanagan Annville, PA, USA mailto:flanagan@redrose.net http://users.desupernet.net/flanagan -----Original Message----- From: owner-chile-heads@globalgarden.com [mailto:owner-chile-heads@globalgarden.com]On Behalf Of NICK Sent: Friday, July 24, 1998 7:23 AM To: chile-heads-digest@globalgarden.com Subject: [CH] supermarket chilis Further to a message a while back, my local supermarket sells punnets of Scotch Bonnets and Habanero's .
