Further InformationEdit Edit

⚠ TAXONOMIC CONFLICT: "Manzano" refers to C. pubescens (a Mexican synonym for Rocoto/Locoto), but this entry is classified as a Habanero (C. chinense). Likely a mis-classification or naming conflation. Verify whether this is a true C. chinense with "Manzano" in its hobbyist name, or actually a C. pubescens that was mis-filed. This C. chinense cultivar. Ripens to black, habanero-type pods. Packs 100,000–350,000 SHU (very hot, not for the faint of heart). Originates from Yucatán, Mexico.
