could be but the top is too "lobed", bottom is right...I grew some that were just called large red habanero's that looked dang similar...
I don't know what MOA means or stands for but the scotch bonnet resembles the foodarama scotch bonnet a lot...lower right hand corner
MOA = Ministry of Agriculture - It looks very much like my red habs I am growing as well.
Unknown reds look like NuMex Suave. I'll post pics of some ripe ones of mine in my glog tomorrow.
Awesome looking MoA SB... love the shape. I just picked the first ripe one off of my plant yesterday. It does not have that shape, but it is the best tasting pepper I have ever eaten!!! There are 4-5 more on the plant with a similar shape... none of them have that lobed bonnet shape as seen in the opening pic. Are there that much variation in these peppers? Or maybe is it growing conditions, environment, etc that are at play?
These are my Caribbean Red's (Habaneros)..........smooth shaped and in the form of a tear drop.......very uniform pods.
These are my Congo Trinidad's......similar to yours......they tend to get more sculptured and crevassed throughout the season.
AJ....I know you may have acquired seeds from Beth through the years, but the yellow pods in the bottom right are annuums. The calyx is too large to be a c.chinense. The pods look like patty pan or squash peppers.....
There maybe variations.... Steve had given me a good amount of seeds to distribute. ..I'm sure he did his best to isolate. But a few of those seeds I sent out hasn't grown the shape.. ne it growing conditions but still had the flavor. Some folks did get the A pod shapea. This is from Wes
IMO perfect pod shape for a scotch bonnet
