baccatum Bishops crown & Nepalese bell anyone growing ?

Hi Guy's

Anyone growing either of these interesting looking and I hear prolific capsicum baccatum's 🤔

Can't seem to find out much about either except the grow huge ! and are mild in the heat department.

And there's a pepper called "madhatter" or the like which is an F1 cross I'm assuming one of the above is the parent ?

Anyone grown out these F1's .........?

I grew Bishop's Crown last year and the year before. The plants grew about 5 feet tall and were very viny/gangly - definitely needs a cage or some type of support. Yes, it was prolific, harvested over 107 from each. The pods averaged about 14 grams each. I found the initial taste had a hint of cucumber just before the heat hit. Plan to grow them next year.
