About
Habanero-shaped pods start pale green and ripen to a very pale yellow or white; overripe fruit can turn nearly solid white. Flavor is described as a clean chinense taste. Heat sits around habanero level or a little higher, short of superhot. Plants are productive, though non-isolated seed and uncertain generation mean some variation can appear.
Backstory
Bred by Matthew Arthur of Hot Springs, Arkansas, and sold by specialty seed companies from around 2023. Listings mark it as a cross whose filial generation remains uncertain.
