I bought some hot pepper plants called "Tears of Fear". Green house
owner only knew they were very hot. Anybody know anything about
these? Thanks



I saw something like them in Parks seed catalog. From the description
and the picture, I'd guess they are like short stubby jalapenos, but
much hotter. About like a thick-walled hot cherry pepper, and twice as
hot as a serrano pepper.

Could they be.... Habanero???

They looked like jalapenos, and I don't remember if the Scoville rating
was 10000 or 25000, but habanero-type hot peppers are usually 100000+
Scovilles.
