FATALIE

Description

The Fatalie scores near record-heat on pepper heat scales and even beats most Habaneros. The golden yellow fruits, containing very few seeds, grow to 3 inches long and have a strong citrus-like flavour beneath their searing, intense heat. A wonderful choice if you want the heat of a habanero but have trouble getting them to mature in your garden or green house. The Scoville Food Institute lists the Fatalie as the world's sixth hottest pepper with Scoville units ranging from 125,000 ~ 325,000 units. They originate from the Central African Republic. Fruits 90 days.

Sowing Advice

Surface-sow or barely cover the seeds indoors, and keep warm and moist. When sprouts appear move them to a sunny window. Set out well-developed transplants after last frost date when weather is warm. Peppers need rich moist soil and warm sunny conditions to flourish. Best sown in early spring.
