“Pandora’s Box Mix”
Virtually every phenotype/selection from Pimenta Jolokia (PJ), found at Towns-End; mixed in 1 package. Experience Bhut Jolokia x Pimenta De Neyde like when it first came out! Untapped selections and variations included! How deep will the rabbit hole take you. Some will have different heat and flavor profiles as well.
Bhut x P.D.N. Around 2015 I started growing out a Peach/Pink Bhut Jolokia x Pimenta De Neyde. They were a fairly early generation. I received them from Jes Christensen. Jes got them from Enrico Lai. I later traced the Peach/Pink of Enrico's to Christopher Phillips, Chris Fowler, Grant Hustler, "Pepper Italia", & AISPES. I started calling them what others were logging variations as & I thought Enrico named them, "Pimenta Jolokia". I also really like the name as a marriage of the two parents that created it. They came from a Peach/Pink variation, but when I planted them: all ripened Red. Not to be Discouraged, I planted a bunch from the different reds and a new peach returned. Many other colors & variations came from those different red variations, including a dark burnt orange in 2016. In 2018 they showed super dark variations with sucked in tails also. Expect many different variations/Phenotypes. Originally Paolo Fisicaro made the cross in 2009 between Bhut Jolokia and Pimenta De Neyde. It was to be called Pimenta Elisa under an Italian non-profit organization AISPES. It was shared abroad to some enthusiasts with attached guidelines. If the guidelines like isolation and single plant selection were not met, it would be cataloged as "Bhut x Neyde Fn" . The problem was that information did not get passed on, and with every color shift; someone created a new name. AISPES did choose to name a few more phenotypes that I know of. "Pimenta Tiger" , "Pimenta Leopard" & "Pimenta Gobbo". After so many variations appeared, many tried to shorten up the name. This information was not easy to track down. All Bhut x PDN do come from 1 cross. This is the most beautiful and productive set of "Bhut x Neyde" genetics I have come across. Some of these variations only found by Towns-End. Unfortunately people are still renaming many variations from this grow out and others. Many PJ’s have matched other Bhut x PDN that have been named over the years, and some got directly renamed from Pimenta Jolokia.
Named Bhut X Pimenta De Neyde include :
Elisir, Tiger, Pimenta Leopard, Pimenta Sparanise, Black Bhut, Black Ruby, Panther, Pockmark, Taj Mahal, Hollows Eve, Purple Phantom, Pimenta Jolokia, Thors Thunderbolt, Smooth Cream/Pink/White, Mojo Blackie/CF/Red/Peach/Scoundrel, Rouge Nior, Bloody Riot, Colt, Black Widow, Lava, Test Pepper, Goldie Prawn, Mystic Nebula, Satins Finger…. And more every year.
Bhut Jolokia x Pimenta De Neyde definitely is a great example of how many “Phenos “ 1 cross can produce even past F8. Considering most Hybrids going around are way younger, you should still be expecting to see variations many generations down the road. I think there’s a lot less actual crosses floating around than is claimed. We should take this as an example to the possibilities of a single cross, and how many names can come of it. I know of over 50 names for the different selections, and more every year when they throw something a little different. Don’t let the ”unknowns” fool ya. Not every pheno is a new cross.
