UK Green Scorpion

UK Green Scorpion is a named mustard chinense pepper line in current collector seed circulation, with Matt's Peppers stating that the seed they grew came from Kevin Bane, and Bane's own listing describing it as his absolute favourite mustard pod. In the live seller descriptions, its identity is built around rich fruity flavour and a mustard mature colour rather than a standard red scorpion finish.

The line is also documented as the mother plant used by Kevin Bane in his Red Tempest Scorpion cross. In that cross description, Red Tempest Scorpion is described as strongly fruity with a touch of scorpion character, which places UK Green Scorpion within the modern scorpion-type chinense breeding stream rather than among heirloom or wild peppers. In current sales channels it is being treated as a distinct named pepper line rather than as a generic unripe green scorpion.

Live scorpion-variant material in the same green-to-mustard scorpion stream describes medium-thick-walled, crunchy, juicy pods that ripen from green through mustard tones, with productive plants that can reach about 1 m in pots and larger in the ground. That matches the way UK Green Scorpion is being positioned in current seed circulation: a fruity mustard scorpion-type chinense valued for flavour as much as heat.
