Capsicum, Hot Pepper 'Fatalii'

Vigorous, 5 ft. tall plants produced huge numbers of large (2-3 inch, large for a chile), bright yellow peppers.

They definitely enjoyed the extra warmth of the south-facing foundation wall they were planted near, and twice weekly irrigation ensured that they were well watered. Did I mention that these peppers are also blazingly hot? LOL

Have not had success trying to grow Fatalii in northwest Iowa. My first time with the seeds they didn't germinate while other varieties ...Read Moregiven same care did germinate. 2nd attempt began with live plants purchased from a supplier, lived but did not produce well -- the growing season here is probably too short. The few chiles I did get off this plant were great and matched descriptions already posted here.

One of the best of the best chinense. Awesome heat & awesome fruity flavor.

Bright yellow 2 1/2 fruits are as hot as Habarnero. Originated in central Africa. (80 day)
