The Poison Tail was bred by Giancarlo Fadda from a cross of Jay's Peach Ghost Scorpion, Carolina Reaper, and SRTSL pepper. Three superhot parents combined into one pepper with a distinctive long, curled tail that looks like a scorpion stinger. The name fits.
Wrinkled, bumpy pods that ripen from deep green to a vibrant, intense red. The plants are highly productive and somewhat compact, making them a solid choice for container growing. A stable variety that's been refined over multiple generations.
