Madame Jeanette (Capsicum chinense) is a chilli pepper originally from Suriname. The plant is fairly small and dislikes cool growing sites. It will grow indoors. The fruits are shaped like small bell peppers but with habanero-like heat. The peppers ripen to reddish-yellow but they are larger and more symmetrical than habaneros. When raw, the taste is of a hot burning, without any sweetness or fruitiness.
