The 'Roulette' pepper is a unique habanero-type variety known for its lantern-shaped orange fruits and intense fruity flavor, but without the usual extreme heat. It offers the typical habanero taste, with tropical notes, while being accessible to everyone.
The fruits turn from green to vibrant orange when ripe. The plant is vigorous and very productive, yielding many peppers throughout the season.
