I grabbed some habanero seeds from the seed bank at my local library and they are yielding ridiculously large leaves just like yours. I believe the packaging said “mixed habaneros.”. No fruit yet.

Damn near looks like a tobacco plant. Nibble on a piece of leaf and see if it tingles!
Do a google image search for tobacco leaves and you’ll see what I mean. Damn near perfect match.

That does look like a really big chilli leaf. Reaaaly big.

I have had Caribbean Red Habaneros and Congo Habaneros with giant early leaves just like that… When they got more mature the leaves became ordinary.

Assuming it is a habanero… with leaves that big, might be worth trying that Korean salad made from pepper leaves.

I’d love to see the size of Habaneros coming out of that plant !! Could be the size of Bell peppers.

It’s probably a annum of some kind. I have seen superhots with big leaves and I have a reaper with big ass healthy leaves right now but no where THAT big

I’d never have thought chilli plants would produce that size of leaf that truly is a whopper. I’m also very interested to see what fruits and the size of them it produces.
All that large leaf space surely allows the plant to photosynthesise to a much greater level so surely that should reflect in the fruits that it produces. That’s just a theory in my head I dont have anything scientific to reference or back it up. But I’m very intrigued

Most of those leaves look like C. Chinese so they should be Habanero or similar pepper, but a few of the ones on top look like C. Annuum, so not habanero. But yeah, they are huge so now I wonder what the hell they actually are. If you’re feeding them high nitorgen I would stop doing that.

My chocolate habaneros all did this, not as big but growing them inside and in finland might affect that

Damn, your beating out the leaves on my scorpion!

I have a 7 pot primo direct from Troy that looks similar.

what fertilizer are you using?? you might have too much nitrogen in the soil

Happy plant!

It’s possible that the plant has access to too much nitrogen. This would present as overly large, dark green leaves, as well as delaying fruit set. Could certainly still be habanero.

My sugar rush Stripey leaves are massive like this. It’s staying super compact and short because it’s just making big, big leaves.
