About this pepper

"This hybrid was created by Portuguese breeder Nuno Pereira. It is an early-generation cross between 'Fish' and 'Black Hungarian', further crossed with 'Chloe's Devil Dog F2'. 'Fish' is known for its variegated foliage and striped fruit, while 'Black Hungarian' produces dark purple peppers with a mild heat level. 'Chloe's Devil Dog' contributes additional genetic variability.

The peppers develop in a range of 7-10 cm in length with a wavy, pointed shape. They initially display green striping, transitioning to orange and maturing to red, with most striping fading at full ripeness. The plant exhibits significant variegation, with a high proportion of white-mottled leaves. Due to its early-generation status, variation in phenotype is expected across individual plants."
