Festus said:No I don't have another name for itthat's was what was on the tag when I picked it up at the store I have had a hard time with it all year and it's just now starting to get a few ripe peppers on it I guess you could say it's getting to look like the picture on the tag
Thats the trouble with the buying from garden centers and stuff your lucky if you get the correct name of the plant,The most Common Habs are Red,Orange,Chocolate and Peach probably ones of those.
Looks like a regular orange habanero just by looking at your pics.
That really bright orange one in the pic is ripe. Pick it and enjoy!
Like I said this is my first year growing the Habanero And this one turns out to be a orange one When I saw the tag at the store that had Pimiento on it I thought it would be a little warm But not a Hot pepper
that it is now that it's getting ready to put out some pertty orange fruit what can I do with them I have read that you can't just pick them and eat them so tell me what you would do if it was yours

Just eat it chopped up in a sandwich or something.
you can use them to heat up any spicy dish you like (wings, tacos, stir frys etc.) you can do as RB says and chop them up and put them on a sandwich, you can use them in salsa's, they are pretty versatile; anything that you want extra heat in, i personally like to dice them and put them on nathans hot dogs with spicy brown mustard and ketchup mmmmmmm and today i actually made myself a salad with them:
Bitter greens, orange habs (cut into thin rings), diced grilled chicken breast, cubed cheddar cheese, white onion, cherry tomatoes, balsamic vinegrette (saute 4tblsp olive oil in a pan with a crushed clove of garlic, allow to cool to room temp, add an equal amount of balsamic vinegar, add some parsley, oregano, and fresh ground black pepper, beat vigerously with a fork) man that was a good salad, with a good kick in the mouth to come along with it, the use of hot peppers is only limited to the flexability of your imagination; hell you could just put them in olive oil and make a super hot oil if you wanted to
