The Wartryx is a formidable chilli variety renowned for its intense heat and distinctive appearance. Developed by Matthew Arthur, this Capsicum chinense hybrid is a cross between the Trinidad Scorpion, 7 Pod Jonah, and Ubatuba Cambucci peppers.
I tried this variety on a livestream. It was agony (if the video doesn’t go directly to the part where I eat it, it is at 1 hour and 2 minutes):
Its wrinkled pods mature from green to a vibrant red, delivering a scorching heat ranging from 1,000,000 to 1,400,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU).
Beyond its fiery punch, the MA Wartryx offers a sweet, fruity flavour with subtle floral notes, making it a unique addition to super-hot sauces and chilli powders.

Seeds Quality
Every seed we sell is grown at the ChilliChump homestead, so we control the whole process from sowing to harvest. Seeds are handpicked from healthy plants, processed using methods we’ve refined over the years, and germination-tested before they reach you.
Unless a listing says otherwise, every variety we sell is a stable line (F7+), so it breeds true season after season and won’t throw unexpected traits on its own. That leaves one thing to manage: cross-pollination, where stray pollen reaches a flower on an insect or a gust of wind while it’s in bloom. We take more care over isolation than most, which keeps the risk small, but no outdoor grower can rule it out entirely, so we don’t claim 100% purity. The only way to
TRULY isolate chilli varieties is to grow just one variety within a quarter-mile to a mile radius from any other chilli pepper variety.
