that's a very nice sized pepper you have there. Was is a capsicum pubescens?
Doesnt look like any pepper I know

That looks a lot like these Peruvian Aji Dulces I'm growing this year. They are chinense with no heat. What do the flowers look like on that plant you have there? Here is a pic of a pod I just picked to compare.
Hey hey Greenchilemonster,
I finally tasted the pepper. I had just eaten a Aji Limo (chinense variety one) that burned up my mouth. So I am not sure if there is a small level of heat to it but if there is, it is negligeable. The leaves were definitely annuums.... Very thick skin, juicy flesh, extra sweet. Very good, I just ate 8 of them one shot.
Peace,
Teurf

I will throw my hat in the ring and say it's a "Brazilian Pumpkin"
Never seen one of those here in Argentina. Did your sister visit the north of the country? If so, it´s probably a peruvian or bolivian variety indeed.
