It appears there was already an ornamental C.Annuum named Jigsaw. I can see it listed on chileplants.com, thechilewoman.com and chilepepperinstitute.org.

Thechileman.org has a guide to crossing chili peppers page that has a table with a cardenasii row. The column with C.cardenasii as the female parent is sparse.

There's a Rocopica (Rocoto & Ulupica cross) entry on rocoto.com. Have you considered bagging some of the flowers given you have Rocotos on your grow list?

  The thread that you found is one that I have posted in before. The pods appear very similar to what I grew that turned out to not be a Peach Habanero. Mine almost never had any heat. My Peach HabNot also produced pods that did not have much flavour. In my case though it was more of a problem...

  The first plant bears a striking resemblance to what ended up being a Capsicum Annuum Jamaican Yellow Mushroom. Sorry to break the news that your two plants are BonNots. The leaves and growth habit of the plants is that of Capsicum Annuum however Scotch Bonnets belong to the Capsicum Chinense...

A late flush of pods is ripening on the biggest in ground Rocoto plant: Rocoto Orange No5 (Late Pods)   Photo taken in dappled sunlight between showers.

Do you have a photo of the plant?

At the time of my post I searched for White Bhut and came up with a number of results that clearly showed the red variety that was being sold as a White Bhut in a previous season. I bought seed from a vendor who distributed seed imported from the subcontinent (he said India but I traced the...

There are various Not-Whites that are never white and end up red doing the rounds. Pepper Lover refers to the difference in the listing of Bhut Jolokia White on her site.   I've seen photos of Pepper Lover's strain that remind me of photos of the Limo Blanco (smooth, conical).   Have you thought...

The only other plant I have seen with pods that ripen to a nice bright yellow are the C. chinense Limón. The Carmine pods ended up a shade of orange to my eye. The first pod on the plant, that aborted after a grub bored a hole into it, had a shape and texture more typical of a yellow 7. This...

Yellow7 runt of a pod that's been a long time coming: Ripening Yellow7 Spotted the yellow on this pod a couple of days before I took the photo.

  As I mentioned before the fertiliser (best match on the name is Pure Blend Pro Bloom) already contains Calcium and Magnesium in the form of carbonates. The use of carbonates is what lead me to ask about the pH. If I was using a fertiliser that already had Calcium compounds in it I wouldn't be...

In your first post you mentioned Botanicare Pro Grow Bloom and gave the impression that you were already using a fertiliser product. Please clarify what fertiliser if any have you given the plant?   The new growth (tips and leaves) is what would be affected by a Calcium deficiency. The leaves...

  There's some newer growth in the form of side shoots from the main stem that looks fine. Do you have any more photos of the new growth on the plant?

I asked JungleRain some time ago what varieties he observed as doing well in hot dry weather (i.e. temperatures of 35 °C). Assam Bhut Jolokia was on the list of varieties that did well for him at his location. The rest were mostly Trinidad varieties (the Scorpions, 7pots, Moruga Red/Yellow)...

Some varieties would have out competed the other varieties in a crowded situation. Did you remove the Limo Blanco plants back when you pulled up the other plants?

The fertiliser that you have mentioned already contains both Calcium and Magnesium as Calcium carbonate and Magnesium carbonate. I would look at the pH as a possible cause of nutrient lock out.

Seeing as there's been no mention of the Limo Blanco for half a year I am curious as to what became of it. Was it one of the earlier casualties of the season?
