Fury is a medium maturing hot pepper hybrid falling in the Indian/Thai-class. Plants tolerate high temperatures and have intermediate resistance to Buckeye-fruit and root rot (Pc). The medium tall plants are strong and have the potential to produce very high yields of small to medium sized fruit (7 - 10 x 1 – 1.3 cm). Fury’s smooth, thin-walled, pendent fruit are dark green in the immature green stage and turn to a very attractive, deep red colour when mature ripe. Fruit can be marketed fresh, dried or pickled.
