You know, I planted tomato seeds in a pot and a squash plant is coming up. The reason I think that is happening is because I used some of the compost from my worm bin, and probably had some squash seeds in it. The other seeds I planted (Yellow mangosteen, goji berry, and soursop) were planted in potting soil, but I am not sure if I used any worm compost on it. What I think I did was to use soil that I made into potting soil in my garden, so there probably is some garden soil in those pots which may have contained seed scraps. Whatever this plant is, it seems to be thriving well. But I have no idea what it is. I have had kiwi in the past, and used to put out vegetable and fruit scraps into the garden, but I don't do that anymore, because animals are attracted to the garden when I put any scraps out, and they destroy the plants as they enjoy moving the food scraps around.

Thanks all, for your replies. @Bill I left them on for 2 weeks, one started with black spots and the other started to wrinkle. They were the first pods and since this one had been topped due to damping off it survived, and those pods were close to the ground than they normally would be if not topped. I have about 40-50 more pods that are green, I will hold out to see if they go red. They at this point have good heat and nice almost sweet after taste once you get past the heat, no need to get the milk but would say if my Wife and kids tried they would run for milk. If not guess they would be peach or pink habs. Mark

I don’t think it is fremontii, but there are a whole lot of somewhat obscure garden hybrids as well as a range of species and species selections that are short and have these cute little bells. Regardless, it is lovely!
