About this pepper

Fatalii x Red Savina is a hybrid Capsicum chinense created by crossing the Fatalii chilli with the Red Savina habanero. Both parent varieties are known for high heat and strong fruity flavour.

Seed seller descriptions state that pods are generally wider than typical Fatalii fruit and ripen from green to bright red. Plants are described as compact and bushy with heavy yields. Pod size measurements are not consistently documented in available listings.

Heat is commonly estimated between 350000 and 500000 SHU. A working figure of 350000 SHU reflects the lower central range most frequently cited. There are no widely published independent laboratory tests specific to this hybrid, and reported values come from seed catalogue estimates rather than certified measurement.

Flavour descriptions suggest a blend of citrus and tropical notes from Fatalii with the classic habanero profile associated with Red Savina. These flavour details are anecdotal and based on seller and grower comments rather than formal sensory studies.

There is no clear documented breeder origin or formal release record. The hybrid appears mainly in specialist seed listings and enthusiast communities, and details about its original creation location or stabilisation process are not widely published.
