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.

The present image of the pepper represents the adjoema which is NOT the real madam Jeanette pepper. This mistake is made so many times by un educated people that mix up the Suriname yellow adjoema with the real Madam Jeanette pepper that is much more wrinkly and is longer in height.
