Probably the most famous of the Pubescens species, its history lies in the Andes region of Peru where it is also known as 'Manzano', meaning apple due the shape of the fruit. It is also called Locoto in Bolivia, Chilli Peron, Chilli Caballo and Chilli Ciruelo. The most distinguishing feature of these peppers are their black seeds. The peppers themselves are very pungent, approx 2in long and 1 1/2in wide and resemble miniature bell peppers. This variety matures in color from green to orange.

These peppers are very HOT and are listed at 12,000 - 30,000 on the Scoville heat scale. Gloves are recommended when handling seeds.

Please note: Pepper seeds are viable when the pepper has fully ripened. The "float test" method is not a reliable way to test seed viability. Buyer beware when purchasing "green" pepper seeds.
