10+ F5 Seeds
C. Annuum
Orange with green and black stripes preripe remind me of the University of Miami colors. Then someone said it was the “U” variety after me. The work has been done for you. Eric Knight made the cross and Rich Blood grew F1 to supply all of the F2 seed. These are a selection from Bryan Townshend. Cross was created by Eric in dedication to Rich Blood and myself for the inspiration to dive into peppers. Eric has been a flower hybridizer for around 30 years. He is very well versed in genetics and holds a lot of personal experience. This is a cross with Scarlett’s Chili and Poblano. There is still some variation in size from this selection, but it’s a real stunner with some decent heat coming close to some Habanero types. Eric is currently working in some more Poblano genetics in efforts to solidify a similar, milder pepper that retains variegation. A beautiful variegated, striped stuffing pepper is the end goal for this hybrid. Some other variations from this cross include purple foliage and fruit before ripening.
