Further InformationEdit Edit

⚠ NAME CONTRADICTION: "Bhut Jolokia Orange Copenhagen" is a Danish-stabilized line that ripens orange. Adding "Red" to the name contradicts the "Orange Copenhagen" identity. Either this is a different selection (a red variant from BOC stock) or the name is malformed. Verify against PepperFriends/Semillas before treating as canonical. A rare color selection of Bhut Orange Copenhagen (BOC), a C. chinense variety developed by Ole Mossberg (a Danish grower) from a Bhut Jolokia (Ghost Pepper) lineage. This red-ripening variant produces wrinkled, habanero-type pods. BOC is known for its distinctive orange color variant; the red selection is less common. Heat 855,000–1,041,427 SHU — firmly in Ghost Pepper territory. The BOC lineage has been widely used in hobbyist crosses.
