So, I'm growing one Peach Wasp plant. It's doing great, one of my biggest, most prolific plants. Saved the seeds from a pod I got from TexasHotPeppers. I decided to grow it because the flavor and heat are outstanding, and it is definitely one of my favorite looking peppers.

They just started to ripen up this week. I thought they were going peach....but they just kept going. The heat and flavor are there, and they might look even cooler than the peach variety!
They are not quite red, I left a couple of these on the plant a good few days after they reached this color, just to see if they were going any further. It's sort of an orange-red/red-orange, I guess.
So, Red-Orange Wasp....Vermilion Wasp? That's got a nice ring to it, hah
_
Anyway....anyone growing these this year? Or has anyone had their Peach Wasps throw off any off phenotypes?
Not sure if it is a cross, or just an unstable variety.
_
...and sorry for the not so spectacular cell phone pics, it was hard to get a good shot of their color. I'll have to line some up next to some other peppers for comparison. and by the way, those are some Kathumby Yellows is that last pic, delicious...
