Scotch Bonnets?

These plants came in a 4 cell tray from a nursery. The tag says Scotch Bonnets. One of the cells had 2 plants growing in it, I left them together when I planted them.
The first picture has SB on the left and on the right is the mystery pepper.

Picture 2 is another plant from the same tray.

Please help ID the mystery peppers.

They dont appear to be Scotch Bonnets, at least the purple looking peppers with the very large calyx.   Its not the first time a Nursery has sold an unknown pepper and just given it a random classification like Scotch Bonnet.  Its a common practice I have found with all the nurseries I have visited.   
 
Nurseries tend to make much more money on "Flowers" so they are very careful to provide uncrossed flowers which are true to species in most cases.
