I don't think this is a habanero
Good Evening,
Not being an experienced pepper raiser , the pepper plant that I have has been posing as a habanero, but I blew it's cover when investigating pepper pics on the net. However, I'm still not really sure what it is. If anyone would like to visit my homepage and have a look, the link is http://hometown.aol.com/moo112/pepperplant.html I think it's probably one of those purple tigers or something like that. Thanks, Moo |

Bolivian Rainbow? There's also a Haitian Purple that grows upright and
belongs to the habanero family. http://www.chileplants.com Lana "MOO112" wrote in message om...

Hi!
It's hard for me to get a clear view of the leaves, but if they have white on the leaves, the pepper plant could be Varigata. Or it could be Bolivian rainbow, taken from the habanero family, it can even be Confetti with a multitude of colours. What whatever it is??? It's gorgeous!! Good luck! peppergirl Please feel free to check out my website. http://hotcuisine.esmartweb.com/ "MOO112" wrote in message om...

What size are the fruits? How do they taste? Thanks.
Regards, Bob Hello, The fruits, which start out purple, are about 3/4" to 1" long, and around 1/2" circumferance in diameter. After several weeks, the purple fruits will change to vanilla, then to orange, and then to red. The bush is around 2-1/2' tall, and is 2 and a half years old. The peppers are quite hot. Does picking peppers promote new pepper growth, or is the yield predetermined? Thanks, Moo |

I haven't fried any of the peppers yet to know if they become green in
the pan. I have cooked with the red ones (the most mature), by chopping them up into very small pieces. The pepper plant in the pictures has at least 100 peppers on it, with more coming each day. I will do a taste test of the various colors this weekend. I do know that the red ones are pretty dang hot. Thanks, Moo |

Thanks for the ID. Yes, we do have a Firecracker. However, the taste
is more like dynamite. Thanks |
