Just ate my first one off the plant yesturday. It had a little heat but died down really fast (Like: Hi, I'm a medium heat, oh, gtg! Bye!) and fantastic flavor. Really did have that lemon flavor. This is the first Baccatum I've ever eaten too!

Ya, I just had to stake up the damn thing, it's getting big!
Glad to hear that they actually taste really good. I've got a few growing right now (thanks Nova!), but they were late starts and I won't see production from them until at least next year. Well that is if they can survive my ineptitude 
.
I plan on overwintering the little guys and am hoping for some decent production out of them. I'm also hoping that they'll add a bit of lemon flavor to some of the Indian dishes I cook. There are a few that would probably be great if they had a bit of citrus flavor.

My aji limon plant is going mental, I'm using the pods up in sandwiches and they taste lovely.

I know they're both Peruvian and Baccatum. Not sure what the differences are though. I also think the baccatum is a unique breed (it's a mixed breed) defining the Aji peppers. Don't quote me on that but it sounds like the two are quite similar. Can't comment on heat differences though.

Aji Lemon is a Baccatum

You're right about the name being Limon and not Lemon, but it's baccatum, as are almost all 'Aji' peppers.

Nope, Aji does not = baccatum.
