Naraka
This is a beautiful and flavorful variety with sweet, fruity undertones that make it enjoyable for nearly everyone. The plants are prolific, producing dark, striking fruit as they ripen. Originally bred by Eric Knight and first grown out by Pepper Guru Rich Blood, this variety was selected from F2 stock and named “Purple Gold.” Now at F5 and maintained by Towns-End Chili & Spice, it's part of the “Mythical Places” line and continues to show exciting variation and standout traits. A true passion project turned garden gem!
