Here is another crazy hot cross with great results. Plants grow fast with very good yields. Plants should be pruned to keep plants size down and to increase yields. Pods have more of a Moruga look to them, with the odd pod with a stinger. Pods have great aroma and flavor and are thin walled and dry out good. Pods are slightly oily inside and powder can clump and should be mixed for best results.
