I grew them first time this year (plants purchased from Cross Country
Nursery) and mine grow to about 2-2.25" long, mature to beautiful bright
clear yellow, and are very! hot! They also have an especially strong and
nice "habanero" aroma and flavor.
Of all the chiles I have grown, which includes many many varieties of
habanero-types and other C. chinense, only Red Savina and Aji Yuquitania
have heat comparable to these fatalis. (Well, not the Yuquitania from
Cross Country Nurseries, which are not very pungent -- I mean the real Aji
Yuquitania, that I'd grown a few years ago from seed).
