plant What kind of pepper plant is this ?

Its a little runt about 10 inches with these peppers. It was given to me as a 2 inch plant and I have no idea what it is. it looks like these round green peppers are starting to turn color.

I grew a Hot Cherry and they grew upwards like that.
 
 The peppers ranged in size from the size of a large marble to the largest which was the size of a ping pong ball.  They had very little heat, even when half ripe and tasted very similar to a bell pepper, I let them continue to the fully ripe red stage and that is when the heat kicked it.
 
 I would say they were similar in heat to a jalapeno but much sweeter.
 
Are these pods thick-walled ?

Peppadews are. They have a distinct bell pepper flavor, and semi/sub jalapeno-heat.

Whether the Peppadew grows upwards I do not know (not yet at any rate, next season is the first time I will be growing them).

I would expect ripe fruit to dangle because of their size and weight, but small pods might grow upwards. 

Just a shot in the dark.
