Unknown Pepper

15 years ago

I bought a pepper plant off e-bay as a Yellow Scotch Bonnet.Now that it's growing out it looks kind of like a Caribbean Red but it's dark green with wrinkles and not pointed.I tried several times to upload a picture but it failed.Does anybody think they might know what kind of pepper this is?

Scotch Bonnets are one of those that has become so generalized that you don't really know what you'll end up with until it sets fruit. Some are really bonnet shaped, some are more pendant, yellow, red, etc...

So, basically, you've got what you've got, probably no way to know *really* what it is other than a hot red pepper in the c.chinese family.
