As the title suggests...
 
is there a pepper that ripens to black? 
 
Could have sworn I saw one last week but am having a difficult time finding it today.

Pretty wicked looking plant with the black leaves and black peppers dang… but looks like it ripens to red.

black pearl goes black > red so its kinda a phony

Black jalapeno goes from green > black > red, most people pick them before they are red anyway so this kinda works pepperjoe sells it.
