A superhot C. chinense, 1,000,000 to 2,000,000 SHU. The pods hang down, green going to red, long and tapered with thin walls. Plants reach 30 to 36 inches.
Superhot C. chinense variety. A distinct variety from Beast, which is a separate pepper despite the shared word. Sources also disagree on this one's origin and heat. Bohica lists it as a Datil × Madame Jeanett selection by Steven Foster, while other sellers credit Atlantic Pepper Seeds and quote a higher range.
Universal Pepper Nomenclature
One code for one pepper, no matter what people call it. Universal Pepper Nomenclature sits behind the names people use and describes the pepper itself: the species, the color it ripens to, its skin, the shape of the pod, and how hot it runs. The last three digits tell apart peppers that match on all of that.
Six parts, always in this order, always split by hyphens. The WikiPepper Foundation board issues every code. Editors cannot create or edit a code.
