Agreed, looks pretty damn neat...
 
@OP, Have you tried them yet? If so, how was the heat and flavor? 
 
Will you try growing these?
 
Also, how did you manage to get them back safely? Any issues w/ TSA or some such entities?

The orange scotch bonnet was very hot, the yellow scotch bonnet was very similar in heat and flavor as an MOA yellow scotch bonnet and the red scotch bonnet had no heat but very good scotch bonnet flavor. The Jamaican red habanero was not as hot as the Caribbean reds that I have grown but had a great hab flavor.. I will be growing all but the yellow scotch bonnets. My waiter, at dinner on the cruise I was on, threw the seeds away when I went to the bathroom lol. I was able to get the seeds back though and have them planted in an Aerogarden
