Further InformationEdit Edit

⚠ MALFORMED NAME: This name stacks three descriptors — "Rocoto" (Peruvian C. pubescens), "Manzano" (Mexican C. pubescens), "Canario" (yellow color form across both traditions). Same biological pepper is referred to as Rocoto Canario in Peru, Manzano Amarillo in Mexico, Locoto Amarillo in Bolivia. This entry is likely a duplicate naming concatenation. See [4373] Rocoto Canario for the canonical entry. A C. pubescens variety. Ripens to red, apple/blunt bell pods, with matte/powdery. Rates 30,000–100,000 SHU, which means hot, with a lingering burn. From Andes (Peru/Bolivia). Parentage: Ancient domesticate. A C. pubescens type — the only domesticated pepper with black seeds, hairy leaves, and tolerance for cool temperatures.
