Hey people! 
 
What are the pepper varieties with the most interesting, cool or beautiful flowers you've seen?
 
I'm growing CAP 214 right now, which has pretty cool flowers. On the pics I've seen it looks like it has conjoined petals:

Wow! I love it! That looks really cool! I want to look in to getting that one. I'm growing these two varieties this year from Mojo.

Those are pretty cool! Is the BBG one not completely opened or does it stay like that? I love the Purple Bacc, very nice.

Mine hasn't flowered yet, but if it's like a red BBG, the calyx will stay closed and the petals will open.

The most interesting I've grown is Cumari Pollux, a capsicum praetermissum.

Oh wow, I'm growing Cumari Pollux for the first time this year. Never knew the flowers were so beautiful!

The flowers of that Purple Flower Baccatum from Mojo look a lot like the flowers on the Cumari Pollux by the way. Is it a cross maybe?

It's hard to say. Mojo doesn't give the parentage of the Baccatum. Here's what he says about it:

A really rarity from my friend Max (UK).
A purple flower baccatum from Brazil. Beautiful plants with very unique flower.
Pods are medium size and decent heat ideal for everyday dishes and sauce.

It's possible. I don't know if they are the same, but I searched Baccatum var. Praetermissum and got a few hits. They seem like a smaller pod than what Mojo has.
