Lemon Nova is a striking experimental superhot pepper believed to be a natural cross between Lemon StarrBurst and White Ghost. This unique variety combines the bright citrus character and vibrant yellow color of Lemon StarrBurst with the elongated shape, thick walls, and intense heat commonly associated with White Ghost peppers. The result is a beautiful, high-producing pepper that is as flavorful as it is fiery.

The pods ripen to a brilliant lemon-yellow and feature an elongated, slightly wrinkled appearance with a meaty texture. Flavor begins with bright citrus notes and a subtle fruity sweetness before quickly giving way to a powerful, lingering superhot burn. Lemon Nova is an excellent choice for fresh salsas, fermented hot sauces, pepper powders, flakes, and spicy seasoning blends where exceptional flavor is just as important as heat.

Plants are vigorous, productive, and continue setting eye-catching pods throughout the growing season. Whether grown in containers or directly in the garden, Lemon Nova is sure to become a favorite among superhot enthusiasts and collectors looking for something truly unique.

As this is still an experimental variety, some variation in pod shape, size, and heat level may occur while the line continues to stabilize. Each generation offers the opportunity to further refine this exciting new pepper.

10–20 premium seeds per pack.

Please note: Lemon Nova is an experimental open-pollinated variety believed to have originated from a natural cross between Lemon StarrBurst and White Ghost. While this selection has produced consistently outstanding plants, minor variations in pod characteristics may still occur as the variety continues to stabilize.
