Hoping someone can ID these peppers

14 years ago

These seeds were marked Bulgarian Teardrop.

The plant has had hundreds of pods and has a citrusy flavour before ripening.

These were marked as Black Pearl seeds.

The pods start off green, then go black and are now going a browny/purple colour.

They are very fleshy.

These seeds were marked as Aji Dulce#1

Tried a tiny bit of a green one a month ago and from memory it was pretty hot.

It now appears to be going brown or maybe it will be orange, can't tell yet.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

The first one looks like Bulgarian Teardrop to me.
At least the one in my garden.

Second one doesn't look like Black Pearl.Black Pearl has round, upturned pods but I've gotten seeds for black pearl that put out different plant variations too.

Looks like my Chocolate Brown Habanero from Tomato growers that I have growing outside now.But if it could be a color stage in ripening.

Mike, it does look a lot like the plant in the link.
The pods point upwards for a long time before some then seem to turn downwards.
The third is the one that looks like your chocolate brown habanero?

FloralUK that one sure looks like the same plant. Leaves look right. Flowers look right now I just need to find a pic of the seed pods. I too thought it was a verbascum based on the seed pods but the leaves dont look right. Thank you all for continuing to try to id this plant. I appreciate all your efforts Signet

Thank you, Carol and lilc5. The picture above actually looks a little more coral than in person. The best color I have found to define it is crimson. It sure is funny how different times of day affects the color. Ann, I'm afraid I mis-led you regarding the petals turning white. When I look at the roses in full sunlight, there is a white cast that I mistakenly thought was fading petals. I guess it's just the way the sun hits the petals. They actually just fade to a darker shade, kind of pink-blue-gray. It's hard to describe but I will post more pics of the fading blooms later. Wish my camera would capture the true color. I just can't seem to get it and I've tried many settings. Looking into the R. multiflora in its parentage lead (thanks, Ann). May have to check out a library book... something I haven't done in years!! I found this article about Polyanthas and I doubt that I will be able to identify it with any certainty unless I learn a LOT more about roses. Maybe I can find this book from H. Scott Hansen.

Yup.
But it could be a transition color too.
Green pods can go brown on their way to red(green + red =Brown).Especialy when they get lots of sun.

Hmmmmm, hopefully it will finish its transition soon.
It's in the greenhouse at the moment, I dug it up about a month ago when first frost warnings came out.( frost warnings tonight for the entire province)
What does a chocolate habanero taste like?

Some chocolates can have a bitter aftertaste,most I've had don't.
I use the bitter ones for fruit salsas-the sweet balances things out.
In general they have a strong Chinense flavor with a little to a lot more heat.
There are too many vesions/strains to tell you what you'll get.
They can take a long time to get ripe.

Frost warnings.Whats that?
105 here yesterday.Cooled to about mid 90's today.Was 93 at 6pm today.High 70's to low 80's right now at 9:30 pm.

A lot of people this year had no growing season it seems.
Cold spring and early fall.
Back east some couldn't put the plants out until almost July.
Colorado had a snowstorm yesterday acording to the news.

Southern California weather is ok by me most of the time.

Too bad it's the land of fruits and nuts(Hollywierd,San Francisco and Sacramento...: )

I guess I will just have to wait and see what colour it ends up.
I don't envy you your 100+ temps, I spent most of my life with those kinds of temps in Oz.
We've had a cool summer here but almost all the plants I started indoors and planted out in June have heaps of pods.
The habanero I wintered indoors is absolutely laden.
I did have LOTS of bees and wasps,I wonder if that helped with the pods.
Thanks for your help.
