The other thing I was wondering is I have a whole lot of peppers getting planted.

Should I plant it some distance from the others? I don’t want it like cross-breeding with my normal peppers!

Again I say Yikes!!

;-)

If you haven’t already done so, check in with the garden thread posted by greeneyes.

There are a LOT of savy gardeners on that thread!

Yeah they’ll cross breed, unless they’re a sterile hybrid. It’s hard to even find a normal habanero anymore, they’re all way hotter than normal through cross breeding.

They can cross pollinate so separate them. I got some very hot bell peppers one year because of that.
