Originating from Italy, this destructive pepper will leave you speechless. We’re not kidding here. We have tasted the Apocalypse Scorpion and let me tell you, it can do some damage.

Expect a heat close to the Carolina Reaper with a wonderfully unique flavor that will knock you flat on your butt and send the in-laws home crying!

Apocalypse Scorpion pepper plants will grow over 4 feet tall and their pods mature to a red color. These peppers are burning hot with fruity tones and often develop that signature scorpion tail. Make sure to use this super hot pepper in moderation as small pieces of this pepper will add wicked hot heat to any hot sauce or dish.

WARNING: Plants adjust to small, gradual changes in their environment better than sudden shifts, which is what the hardening off process is all about. Just as you get burned when you bare your untanned skin to the sun, leaves of plants started indoors will develop pale, sunburned patches if they are suddenly exposed to too much sun. The story has a happier ending when you introduce seedlings to bright light and sheltered breezes gradually, over a period of one to three weeks. Read more information on how to harden off and transplant pepper plants in 6 steps.
